Our Mission Statement in District 47 is very simple:
" Educational excellence for all students is our passion and commitment ".
As a school district we are proud that the curriculum we offer students is based on the best practices that exist in the educational community. We continue to have more students meet or exceed standards than the state average on the Illinois Standards Achievement Tests. We have a quality special education program, gifted education program, bilingual education program, and Reading Recovery program just to name a few. The district has worked to provide these and other quality programs while at the same time has a commitment to fiscal responsibility.
The passion and commitment that our board of education, administration, teachers and support staff have towards providing educational excellence for all children will continue to be the driving force behind providing our community with knowledgeable, wise, productive citizens. As children leave our district we are committed to preparing them for their high school years and beyond.
