About Us:

District 36 is located in Cook County, Illinois, in the village of Winnetka, 16 miles north of Chicago. For decades, The Winnetka Public Schools have lead the nation in progressive education and served as model for educators who value the development of the whole child.

The District serves approximately 2,000 kindergarten through eighth grade children in three elementary schools (Crow Island School, Greeley School, and Hubbard Woods School); one fifth/sixth grade center (The Skokie School); and one seventh/eighth grade middle school (Carleton Washburne School).

After students complete Grade 8 in The Winnetka Public Schools, they attend New Trier Township High School where 96% go on to college.
