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.

We love Romona! Our kids are excited to go to school every day and the teachers and administration make it easy to communicate with them and know what’s happening at school. As someone who didn’t love going to school, I’m so happy to see my kids excited almost everyday to go learn.

We relocated to the district last year, and our son is enjoying his time at school. The principal is exceptionally kind and caring, and the majority of the teachers are super nice.

They seem really behind the times. If your kid looks and acts like the majority group, they may find their place, but even so, it doesn’t appear that kids feel free in this district to be and express themselves. I don’t believe this is a healthy environment.

We have had two children make the progression through Romona. All of the faculty and parent organizations have made this a memorable, positive experience for our children. Easily the most diverse and well rounded school in Wilmette.
