Discover District 15

We believe literacy is the foundation of the educational experience. Our commitment to high-quality literacy instruction is rooted in responsive teaching practices.

Focus on Literacy

Cultural responsiveness is for every student, every day. We focus on validating and affirming home cultures and languages in order to build and bridge school relationships and expectations.

Culturally & Linguistically Responsive Teaching (CLR)

Diversity is one of our strongest assets. With 84 languages spoken by District 15 families and students, our district is home to the 13th largest second language program in the State of Illinois.

Since 1946, District 15’s Board of Education has made a commitment to serving the community. Meet the seven elected members of the current Board of Education.
