7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe couldn’t be more disappointed with our family’s experience at Rockland. Of all the D70 schools, this is the one to really avoid. Yes, it’s a quaint, walkable neighborhood school - but education is mediocre at best and support services are lacking. Half the parents went to the local high school and organize their children’s social circle accordingly. What’s truly heartbreaking is the way the school community ignores families from diverse and low-income families, treats them as if they’re invisible.Parent Review1mo ago - Highland Middle School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAwesome middle school! I had 3 children who went to HMS. The teachers and staff are caring, supportive people. When the pandemic hit, they went out of their way to make the middle schoolers feel a sense of normalcy in what was a crazy time. Over my 3 children's years there, I have ample examples of caring, supportive engaging teaching, and teachers who really care about the students. There are also numerous clubs and activities to keep the students involved, and the transition to high school was excellent!Parent Review1y ago - Libertyville High School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLHS has provided what I believe to be an average education for my child, but not nearly close to what I expected given the school’s previous reputation. LHS is steadily going downhill and has already lost pace with VHHS in academics, diversity and other initiatives. The school is outdated on so many fronts and communication with families and community is poor. It’s as if LHS is stuck in a time capsule from the 90s and doesn’t know how to progress. There’s also a heavy celebration of athletics versus creative and academic extracurriculars. This isn’t a Chicago suburban high school, this is a small town high school that can’t adapt to modern changes.Parent Review1mo ago
