Living near Conant HS

The area, not just the school

Living near Conant puts you in the heart of the northwest suburbs, where the east side of Schaumburg meets the southeast edge of Hoffman Estates. This is the Woodfield corridor: Woodfield Mall, one of the largest shopping centers in the country, sits minutes away, and major employers like Motorola Solutions and Zurich North America keep the local economy busy. It is a true commuter base too, with the Schaumburg Metra station on the Milwaukee District West Line running into Chicago's Union Station, plus Pace bus and the free Woodfield trolley filling in the local trips.

The housing here is classic established-suburb: leafy single-family subdivisions built out from the 1960s onward, plus a healthy mix of townhomes and condos for first-time buyers and downsizers, so there is genuine range for different budgets.

What ties it together for families is the schools. Conant is consistently among the highest-ranked high schools in Township High School District 211, and the surrounding neighborhoods feed well-regarded junior highs, so buyers move here knowing the education pipeline is a real asset.

The school

About James B. Conant High School

Conant High School opened in 1964 as the first high school built within Schaumburg Township and the third campus in Township High School District 211. It was named for James Bryant Conant, the chemist and educator whose work on teacher education helped shape the modern American high school. The school serves families on the east side of Schaumburg, the west side of Elk Grove Village, the northern Cook County section of Roselle, and the southeast side of Hoffman Estates.

Conant has a long track record of academic recognition. The U.S. Department of Education named it a Blue Ribbon School in the mid-1990s, and in 2006 the College Board recognized it for having the highest percentage of students passing Advanced Placement exams in the College Board's Midwest Region. In 2018, U.S. News & World Report ranked Conant the highest of any high school in District 211.

Conant fields Cougars teams in the Mid-Suburban League and competes under the Illinois High School Association across a full slate of sports. The school has captured IHSA state championships in girls cross country, boys and girls gymnastics, and cheerleading.
