The school is part of the DuPage High School District 88, which is ranked 452 out of 811 school districts in Illinois and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Willowbrook High School has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Illinois high schools over the past several years, with a ranking as high as 102 out of 688 schools in the 2020-2021 school year. The school's performance on standardized tests, such as the ACT, PreACT Secure, and SAT, is generally above the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. Willowbrook's proficiency rates in these tests are notably higher than the nearby Addison Trail High School, which is also part of the DuPage High School District 88. The school has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 87.7% to 92.5% over the past few years, which is on par with or slightly higher than the district and state averages.

Additionally, the school's performance for Asian and Hispanic student subgroups is relatively lower, with rankings in the bottom half or bottom quarter of Illinois high schools. Willowbrook generally outperforms the nearby Addison Trail High School, but lags behind some of the higher-performing high schools in the area, such as Glenbard South High School, Glenbard West High School, and York Community High School, which are part of the Glenbard Township High School District 87 and Elmhurst School District 205, respectively.
