Living near Neuqua Valley HS

The area, not just the school

South Naperville, the area around Neuqua Valley near Route 59 and 95th Street, is one of the most established family destinations in the western suburbs. Naperville is a city of roughly 149,500 people, and the southern end grew up largely in the 1980s and 1990s building boom that tripled the city's population. Expect well-kept subdivisions of single-family homes from that era and later, walkable streets, and the kind of parks-and-schools rhythm that draws people here in the first place.

Day to day, life leans on the Route 59 corridor just west of the school, a dense run of shopping, dining, and services, with the 95th Street Library, the city's newest and largest branch at 73,000 square feet, right nearby. Downtown Naperville and its 1.75-mile Riverwalk along the West Branch of the DuPage River, plus the Naper Settlement museum campus, give the city a genuine center beyond the subdivisions.

For commuters, the draw is the BNSF Metra line, with the Route 59 station serving this side of town and the downtown Naperville station offering Metra and Amtrak service into Chicago. Pace runs rush-hour bus service to the stations, and the I-88 east-west tollway corridor keeps drivers connected to the rest of DuPage and the city. It is a true commuter-friendly suburb that still feels like its own town.

About Neuqua Valley High School

Neuqua Valley opened in August 1997 near Route 59 and 95th Street in southern Naperville. At a cost of $63 million it was the most expensive high school in Illinois at the time and the largest built in the state in nearly eighty years, designed to house 3,000 students. The school is named after Neuqua, a Potawatomi and the son of Waubonsie, and it serves as the counterpart to Waubonsie Valley and Metea Valley within Indian Prairie School District 204. The campus grew to include the Birkett Freshman Center for ninth graders, and in September 2017 Neuqua Valley became the first high school in the district to be named a National Blue Ribbon School.

Neuqua Valley is consistently recognized for academic strength: in 2022 it posted an average composite ACT score of 26.0 and graduated 95 percent of its senior class. It is also nationally distinguished in the arts, named a GRAMMY Signature School multiple times and earning the national Best in Nation GRAMMY honor in 2005 and 2013. In 2025 Niche ranked Neuqua Valley the top high school in Naperville and 10th among the best public high schools in the Chicago area.

Neuqua Valley competes in the DuPage Valley Conference and fields teams across baseball, basketball, cross country, soccer, swimming and diving, track and field, volleyball, and water polo. The boys cross country program is a particular powerhouse, and the school has collected IHSA state titles in badminton, baseball, boys and girls soccer, boys cross country, boys and girls swimming and diving, and boys track and field.
