Information About District 44

Six elementary schools serve the educational needs of students in grades K-5, while students in grades 6-8 attend Glenn Westlake Middle School. A highly-qualified and experienced staff of over 250 professionals maintains high standards of instruction. A seven-member elected school board serves without pay to govern District 44.

According to the 2006 Illinois School Report Card, approximately 3,144 students, prekindergarten - Grade 8, are enrolled in District 44 schools. With an annual budget of approximately $33 million, District 44 spends $10,589 per student each year.

Attendance Boundaries

The District 44 Board of Education has established attendance boundaries in consideration of several factors including: natural boundaries; assigning students to schools nearest their home whenever possible; minimizing bus travel and maximizing an efficient transportation service; and establishing the safest routes for those children walking between home and school.

It is recommended that families new to District 44 contact the Administration Center at 827.4400 to determine specific attendance for elementary school students and/or to determine eligibility for bus transportation. Bus service is provided at no cost to students who live more than 1.5 miles from their assigned school or who would walk along a route that has been declared hazardous by Illinois Department of Transportation standards.
