42^nd

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 620 Illinois High Schools

Better than 93% of Illinois high schools

Summary

J B Conant High School serves 2,633 students in grades 9–12 in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. Its strongest overall distinction is consistent: in 2025–26, Conant scored above the state and district in every reported test comparison and ranked second to Wm Fremd High School among nearby schools in each of the nine matching ACT and PreACT comparisons.

Conant’s test results are strong locally as well as statewide. On the 11th-grade ACT, 71% of students met proficiency in ELA, 67% in math, and 71% in science; these results were second among nearby schools in each subject, behind Fremd. Compared with Township HSD 211, Conant’s rates were 8 points higher in each subject; compared with Illinois, they were 21 points higher in ELA, 28 in math, and 23 in science. Math is the clearest relative strength, while ELA has the smallest advantage over the district in the two PreACT grades. Attendance and graduation are also strong, though Conant does not lead every local measure: chronic absenteeism was 15%, below the district’s 18% and state’s 24%, but above Fremd’s 11%.

Recent changes are mixed: ACT ELA rose 1 point and ACT math rose 2 points from the prior year, while PreACT ELA fell 5 points in grade 9 and 4 in grade 10. PreACT math was flat in grade 9 and rose 3 points in grade 10. SchoolDigger ranked Conant 42nd of 620 Illinois high schools, at the 93rd percentile with five stars. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 16.3, second highest among nearby schools with figures for that year. In 2024–25, 35% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; that was higher than Fremd (23%), but lower than Schaumburg High School (39%) and Hoffman Estates High School (53%). SchoolDigger’s measure of how well Conant serves Disabled Students ranked at the 52nd percentile in 2025–26, down from the 95th percentile in 2024–25. Its measure for African American Students rose from the 78th percentile in 2023–24 to the 93rd in 2025–26, matching the overall ranking.
