Lake Zurich Community Unit School District 95 serves approximately 5,600 students from Pre-K—age 22.

District 95 is a community unit school district which serves students in grades Pre-K- through 12. We operate five elementary schools, two middle schools, one high school, the Young Adult Center, a staff development center which houses transportation, facilities department offices, and an administration center. The school district is governed by a group of seven elected community members, referred to as the Board of Education, who serve without compensation.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month! As we explore the Technology Forest together, our special guides are showing us the safe path to take to help us make smart choices.

Who, who, who could the last friend of Scottie the squirrel, Sami the snake, and Tina the turtle be?

It’s Otto the owl!

Otto the owl is wise and always watching over his friends. If Scottie the squirrel needs help with an acorn, Sami the snake needs help shedding a security hole, or Tina the turtle needs help with a password, Otto the owl is the friend they ask for help.

If something online seems strange, confusing, or just doesn’t look right, Otto the owl wants us to stop and tell a trusted adult. We don’t have to figure it out by ourselves. Asking for help is a smart choice!

Otto the owl challenges you: Be wise! If something doesn’t look right, stop and speak up!

Congratulations to May Whitney Elementary School, recipient of the 2026 Governor's Blue Ribbon Schools Award, earning one of the state's highest recognitions for educational excellence!!! The school is one of just 24 schools statewide to receive the distinction this year.

The Illinois Governor's Blue Ribbon Schools Program recognizes public and nonpublic schools that demonstrate exceptional student outcomes through outstanding academic performance or success in closing achievement gaps. May Whitney was recognized as an Exemplary High Performing School.

The Governor's Blue Ribbon Schools Program was established in 2025, after the federal administration abruptly ended the prestigious U.S. Department of Education program. Schools receiving the designation serve as models for effective teaching, learning, and student support across the state.
