Future Ready Learners
District 62 educates approximately 5,000 students PreK-8th grade in 11 schools. Including one early learning center, 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools and one year round K-8 school. We proudly serve and support students and families from Des Plaines and Rosemont.
WHOLE SCHOOL
Our schools play a critical role in promoting the health and safety of young people and helping them to establish lifelong healthy behaviors.
WHOLE COMMUNITY
When schools engage families in meaningful ways to improve student health and learning, families can support and reinforce healthy behaviors in multiple settings-at home, in school, in out-of-school programs, and in the community.
WHOLE CHILD
The whole child approach gives children the foundation they need to become well-rounded, healthy individuals, equipped with a solid education and important life skills to help them reach their full potential.
