Kildeer
Countryside Community Consolidated School District 96
is a K-12 school district centered in the
Lake County village of
Buffalo Grove,
Illinois. This district
is composed of seven schools in total, or one kindergarten center, four
elementary schools, and two middle schools; any students attending District 96
will ultimately attend
Adlai E. Stevenson High School
in
Lincolnshire, Illinois.
This district's kindergarten center is known as Willow Grove Kindergarten Center
which, as its name suggests, serves only kindergarteners. Ivy Hall Elementary
School educates those in and within grades one and five; Prairie Elementary
School and Country Meadows Elementary School do the exact same. Kildeer
Countryside Elementary School, the largest of the schools in terms of the
student body, also serves all grades between one and five.
Woodlawn Middle School
and Twin Groves Middle School provide the next level of education, serving
grades 6-8. As mentioned before, all students from this point on move forward to
Stevenson High School District 125 for their last leg of pre-collegiate
education.[The
school superintendent is Dr. Thomas Many.
In March 2007,
five District 96 schools were elected by the
Chicago Sun-Times as five
of fifty of the best suburban schools in
Chicagoland: Ivy Hall
Elementary School, Prairie Elementary School, Kildeer Countryside Elementary
School, Twin Grove Middle School, and Woodlawn Middle School. The former three
listed were chosen as some of the fifteen best public schools in the county by
Chicago Magazine in
October 2006. In October 2007, Twin Groves was also certified as an official
Blue Ribbon school.
Woodlawn Middle School, in the 2009- 2010 school year, also got a Blue Ribbon
Award.
