quality of schools

Glenbrook High School District, serving The Glen, named #1 in Illinois

by

Yet another award for the high school serving The Glen and greater Glenview, Illinois!  In April, I wrote a blog about Glenbrook South High School receiving a Project Lead the Way Distinguished School Award.  Project Lead the Way is a non-profit that works with schools to promote excellence in computer science, engineering and bio-medical science.  A previous ranking by Niche.com named the school one of the top 30 in the country (the country!) and #1 for extracurricular activities.  Adding to those prestigious awards comes the recently announced recognition, also by Niche.com, naming Glenbrook High School District 225 as the best in Illinois with a rating of A+.

My son recently graduated from Glenbrook South High School, and he’ll be heading to college in a few weeks.  Those of us who live in The Glen are fortunate to have one of the best high schools in the nation to educate our children.  In fact, quality of schools was the principle reason my family moved here 16 years ago.

The Glen is a residential and retail development with luxury homes of all types including single family, town homes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condos.  If you want to learn more about living in The Glen and about homes for sale, please contact me.  I’m an award-winning Realtor focusing on Glen homes.

Glenbrook South High School receives a prestigious award…again!

by

The public high school serving students living in The Glen and greater Glenview is award-winning Glenbrook South High School.  Over the years it has received many awards for its excellence in educating area students from grades 9 through 12.  In fact, only two years ago software company Niche, using data from the U.S. Department of Education, analyzed and compared American high schools and named GBS the 30th best public high school in the country and the #1 high school for extracurricular activities.

Recently, GBS received yet another award.  It has been named a Project Lead The Way Distinguished School.  The award recognizes its successful efforts to increase student access, engagement, and achievement in its computer science, biomedical science and engineering program.  This is the second consecutive year that GBS has been recognized for this achievement.

As a Glen homeowner and parent of a GBS senior, I am very proud of our local high school.  In fact, the quality of area schools is the very reason why my family chose to move to The Glen 16 years ago.  The Glen is the upscale retail and housing development on the grounds of the former Naval Air Station Glenview.  We have beautiful homes of every kind with home prices ranging from the $300’s to over $2 million.  If your family has children, you should consider living here, too.  I am an award-winning local Realtor, and I would love to show you around.
