Glenbard East High School

Came here for a school play. The building itself looks nice and the security protocols are good.
BATHROOM REVIEW: Reviewing the bathroom near the theater. It is SUPER modern and clean. Man, I wish my bathrooms in highschool were like this one. Our bathrooms didn’t even have stall doors. Sit or squat? Sit!

Glenbard East has an amazing music program — I was a band geek all through high school, and honestly, I had a blast. I’m almost finished with college and still talk to my HS band friends all the time.
Teachers, for the most part, do a good job (loved my English and history teachers in my junior and senior years), and there is plenty of class diversity — whether you want to be on the crazy honors/​AP track, the standard track, or take a bunch of random electives, you can do it. There were also plenty of clubs and activities (yearbook, newspaper, language clubs, math team, all that good stuff).
A ton of East kids end up going to schools like U of I, UIC, DePaul, Loyola, Elmhurst College, and COD. I’d say it’s your standard well-​organized suburban public high school, though definitely more diverse than the lily-​white communities on the North Shore.
The only real disadvantage I remember is the student parking — there’s a small lot for seniors that you only have access to if you win a spot in the lottery. (Tip: if you want a better chance, tell them you stay late after school a lot.) Otherwise, you have to park along the street, and it’s first come, first served in the mornings.

It was hard finding kids with personality here.
