The amount of groups, activities, and diversity is what really stands out for the school, especially compared to schools in the area. We have groups such as FFA, National Honor Society, Student Council, D&D club, Scholastic Bowl, Gay-Straight Alliance, Interact. Then, there's also Dance, Color Guard, Marching Band, and so on. We have many sports: Cross Country, Volleyball, Basketball, Football, Track and Field, Softball, Baseball, Wrestling, and others. I take part in a lot of those including leadership positions. I am Historian for NHS, Drumline and Front Ensemble Section Leader for Band, and a Captain for Cross Country and Track. The diversity is amazing as there is a mix of a lot of LGBTQ+ and straight people, and ethnic backgrounds of African/White/Mixed/Asian/Mexican Americans. The thing that needs more focus in our school is behavior issues(like fights), more opportunities in AP classes, and strive to have education be the main focus over sports(students first, athletes second).
Rantoul Township High School offers excellent opportunities to students, especially those entering the medical field, the military, and other routes. They have very friendly teachers and staff that genuinely care about their students, from the art teachers to cafeteria workers. The principal cares deeply for his students and the staff truly does their best to make sure we are being safe and responsible. The reason this isn't rated a 5 out of 5 is because the amount of violence in the halls during school hours made me feel exposed and unsafe. Teachers had to break up fights daily and the level of violence was high. Other than this, RTHS is an excellent option.
Most of the teachers were okay. Students made the experience terrible. There were lots of fights as lunch time. There were multiple threats made by students and the administration seemed to do little about them. There was not a lot of discipline. I was involved in all honors classes but I did not feel like I was receiving the best quality education that I could have. I did not feel very safe while attending school there. There were quite a few clubs to be involved in, which is nice.
