Lyons Township High School was one of just 60 Illinois school districts honored with a Bright A+ award. The award is based on academic performance, and districts earning the award are among the top 5% of all Illinois school districts. High school districts were judged based on the ACT composite score of all students tested.
The Bright A+ awards are sponsored by School Search, a firm that provides comparative school district information to corporations, homebuilders, libraries, real estate professionals and relocating families.
