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.

As a "unpopular" student attending Stillman Valley High School with average grades- life is already unfair and everything is against me. Add to that the fact I am a trans kid and everyone else here seems to be offended if someone isn't a straight white kid- the odds worsen. The teachers are better than the students, but in some cases not by much. Some of the policies and rules that are held here are extremely biased and the procedures for certain offenses are incredibly unbalanced.

My experience at Stillman Valley High School Illinois is fun yet, get very much education. I get help when I need it from teachers. Students will help anyone around the school. SVHS Illinois is one out of two schools that still do May Day, which is a amazing tradition to do.
