Barrington 220 is a nationally-recognized PK-12+ public school district located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago.

Empower personal excellence in every learner. The first Barrington school was a one-room schoolhouse, which opened in 1835. However, it wasn’t until 1973 that the Barrington 220 School District officially formed. Through the years, Barrington 220 has become a nationally recognized school district, known for its innovative curriculum, rich history and sense of community. As a unit district, Barrington 220 has the unique opportunity to see students’ education from the very beginning, until they graduate from Barrington High School. Our schools have earned a total of 11 National Blue Ribbon Awards and nearly 90% of our teachers have earned a master’s degree or higher. In 2019, 2020 and 2021 Barrington 220 was named a “Top Workplace in Chicagoland” by the Chicago Tribune.

When some Grove students kept drawing four-square courts with chalk, their enthusiasm caught the Grove team's attention!

With guidance from our Buildings & Grounds team, these students helped update the playground by painting a permanent four-square area at Grove!

We love seeing our students’ voices, creativity, and initiative make a real difference in their school community. A big thank-you to our Buildings & Grounds team for helping bring the students’ vision to life!

Grove 4th grade Dual Language students in Mr. Alfaro and Mrs. Stotz’s classes have been bringing history to life by exploring the stories and accomplishments of influential Hispanic figures!

Each student selected a historical figure, conducted research in Spanish, and brought their learning to life through creative costumes, props, and engaging presentations. Students shared their presentations with classes across Grove, while families were invited to join in celebrating their children’s learning and bilingual achievements.

This project was a meaningful celebration of Hispanic heritage, cultural representation, and the power of bilingual learning. We are so proud of our students for their creativity, dedication, and hard work in honoring the individuals who have made a lasting impact on history!
