Academic Statistics
Glenwood High School (GHS), based on the 2008 PSAE scores, was ranked in the top 50 high schools in Illinois. All students in Illinois are required to take the ACT examination during their junior year in high school. Each year, several GHS students score 34 or higher on the ACT's. In the class of 2010, one student scored a 36 on the ACT. The SAT examination is optional, and few students elect to take this test. In 2008, though, one GHS student scored 2350 and was a National Merit Scholar. Currently, there are four students in the 2010 graduating class advancing in the National Merit competition as semifinalists. Current academic averages are:
