About Arlington Heights School District 25

Arlington Heights School District 25 provides public education from kindergarten through eighth grade in central Arlington Heights. Seven elementary schools serve grades K–5, after which a separate attendance boundary assigns South or Thomas Middle School for grades 6–8. The district's address-based assignment is necessary because an Arlington Heights mailing address and the nearest campus do not settle either the elementary or middle-school placement.

Kindergarten uses the same neighborhood-school network but offers two daily schedules. Every District 25 elementary school provides full-day kindergarten, and families may instead choose a morning half-day program. Half-day students begin in the same classroom and receive the core reading and mathematics block; science, social studies, art, music, and physical education may occur after they leave. The schedule choice changes the child's daily program while the neighborhood campus and attendance route remain the same.

Eighth grade is the final year governed by District 25. Students commonly continue into Township High School District 214, which applies its own boundary, registration, governance, and calendar. The District 25 elementary-to-middle route does not establish the later high school; District 214 makes that determination from its own residence map.
