GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Amazing teaching faculty and administration. RMHS recently underwent administration change in 2024, resulting in a much stronger, more centralized front office. Highly underrated in the context of District 214.

High school, for me was a very transformative and crucial time in my life. It helped that I had some amazing teachers and friends to help me along the way. I met all of them through school and clubs that they offer. As soon as I stepped into Rolling Meadows, it was advocated that you should join activities and try to get more involved. In doing that, I discovered more about myself and some things I might be interested in for the future. I'm so glad that I did, or else I would have missed out on all these great experiences.

I have had an overall good experience with Rolling Meadows High School. I have met and connected with people of all different backgrounds and they have done a fantastic job towards facilitating ways to connect with people. They have a plethora of activities and supportive teachers. Some of their staff can be rude but overall it has been well.

The teachers are great! All three children of my children have attended and enjoyed their high school years. They've had opportunities to participate in many sports and activities, unlike other schools where the same kids always make the various sports teams. As an educator myself, I appreciate all...
