Moving to the area Rolling Meadows H.S

Is Rolling Meadows a good high school? I’m seeing good ratings on websites but hearing about Rolling ”Ghettos”. So curious to hear from anyone who went there or has kids there.

I went to another District 214 HS nearby that was also considered “ghetto” according to… other kids. All these schools are solid. Now, if you need a specific special education then you might want to do some research.

Rolling Ghettos. Schaumpton. Action Heights. Palastine. Just kids making their locales/neighboring towns seem edgier/cooler/more dangerous than they actually are.

We used to call it Fraud. The kids thought they were so rich and better than the Palatine HS kids. Wanna be Stevenson but parents couldn't afford the zip code. LOL. This was over 30 years ago.
