Homewood-Flossmoor High School Reviews

 
This high school definitely prepared my daughter for college. She said her freshman year at college was easy compared to high school.

H-F is a wonderful school for the brightest students. However, it seems the average level student is largely ignored... Unless your special needs child is severely handicapped, the Special Education Department is utterly deplorable.

HF is a good learning institution that offers a healthy balance of acaedmics, diversity, sports, and faculty. But it also appears that the school and community is having problems dealing with the difference in changing culture. Sadley some misconstrue culture with saftey which is a unfair observation.

I would consider H-F to be more comparable to a small college than a high school. I truly believe that this High School prepares students for a rigorous University. The quality of the educational curriculum and the teachers are above anything I have seen in comparison to many schools in the Chicagoland area. The amount and type of classes that are offered to the students is unbelievable. I feel that my kids will come out of H-F ready to attend a top College and succeed in the future. By the way H-F has a new principal who is doing an outstanding job.

My son graduated from HF this year and I have a daughter who will be a sophomore. We moved to the area especially for HF and its diversity. HF has challenged my children as well as prepare them in the areas of academics and more importantly real life. I find that the school address the safety issues promptly and more important accurately. I would highly recommend HF to any parent that is looking for their child to accept the world as it is and then take it by storm

We were so impressed with HF that we purchased our home in the school;s district. We feel our girls are getting a good education, but we can also sense a deterioration taking place, behavior-wise. The students have become less respectful to the rules and demands of HF. However, we keep very good communication with the school via its outstanding Parent-Connect. The teachers are very prompt an efficient in answering questions and all grades of quizzes, tests, quarter and semester grades are readily available giving parents immediate feedback to any existent problems. This is a huge plus for HF. Our girls are happy also with the sports. We only hope that the behavior of some erratic students will be handled strictly as far as a dismissal policy. It is a shame to ruin such a well-organized and equipped institution for learning. Our girls receive very good grades. The teachers are excellent.

HF was once a great high school, but has really struggled with student security issues, safety on campus, and dropping test scores. I admire the battle the administration is putting up to save HF, but it is no where near the level of suburban high schools in the west north suburbs.

My son is a Freshman at HF. I have been very impressed by how caring the faculty and administrators are. He is in both Honors and Regular classes and is challenged in all. They have a wonderful Music department and many fine after school activities. I would highly recommend HF to anyone.

HF is better than public high schools in the immediate area, but that does not say much. Compared to the top high schools in DuPage County and the North Shore, HF is not even in the same league (it once was). HF has real security issues that only seem to get w
