Nothing here is an opinion it’s all just facts.

Most teachers are pretty good, alot of the teachers have a specific type of pupil they like and if you don’t fit that category they might not like you as much. Decent selection of classes you can take after 2nd year but I’ve seen more in other schools. Not exactly the richest school, can’t really afford any replace meats for school equipment but when we do get new stuff it’s pretty cheap and bad.

Scum

I graduated from Elgin high school back in 2009. This school was so scummy and violent and it wasn't just the students. I witnessed teachers and staff put there hands unneccessary on students all the time. I got a 4 hour dentention for going to the bathroom because the teacher had a no bathroom break policy but I really needed to go. It was hurting. I was only gone for like less than 5 mins i told her i was so sorry it was a emergency but the dean who was ex-military proceeded to scream at me like i was a crimnal. They only do these things to low socioeconomic areas. My first 2 years I went to glenbard east in Lombard All the staff and teachers talked to students normally at Glenbard East but Elgin they talk to the students like they are animals. Elgin high school faculty treat low socioeconomic kids like criminals in hopes that they believe it and go to jail. When you treat kids like crimnals they believe it.
