Fantastic group of administration and staff that approach this diverse population to the maximum of their ability. Keep that in mind when just crunching numbers and looking at test scores. Des Plaines, just like most of the northern suburban school districts are very skewed towards the haves and the have lots. What makes Iroquois so special is the fact that they embrace diversity and help everyone just the same, no matter what the background or circumstances. The school community is amazing and, for this school district one of a kind. As with any school, education begins and ends at home. Stay active and it pays paramount, especially here. Go Warriors!

I'm very disappointed in this school ,The curriculum is poor. Very little communication between teacher and parents. My child teacher is being arrogant, couldn't care less for a student. Apparently my child is not doing well academically and socially and yet I can not get any help or advice from her, how am i supposed to help. When I talk to her she says he is doing just fine, and then I'm getting very poor report card.

Wonderful school with a supportive, approachable staff! I have children who are present and future Iroquois students and feel so fortunate to have chosen and gotten into this school. The curriculum is stimulating and challenging and the school has great updated technology due to last years remodel. This school is K-8 yet feels very small and tight knit which allows my children and I to feel very comfortable. We are very much looking forward to our future with this Principal and teachers...they really are all fantastic!

Great, caring and educated staff. Freshly remodeled building. District provides sufficient funds for technology and teacher training. The only thing missing is a stronger feel of community amongst parents. This school achieves a lot with a very mixed group of kids coming in.
