Motto: Together Today to Transform Tomorrow

Mission: Together, we cultivate an inclusive and caring community where every learner is supported, challenged, and prepared to thrive in a changing world.

Vision: We envision a future in which every school ignites curiosity, fosters belonging, fuels joy, and equips every learner to lead with purpose, resilience, and compassion in a changing world.

In this future:

  • Students lead their learning. They set meaningful goals, think critically, apply knowledge to authentic challenges, and graduate prepared for high school, postsecondary success and engaged citizenship.

  • Belonging is systemic, not incidental. Policies, practices, and structures ensure every learner feels seen, valued, and supported in a culturally responsive and inclusive environment.

  • Learning reflects the future. Instruction prioritizes collaboration, innovation, adaptability, and real-world application aligned with emerging opportunities and workforce needs.

  • Continuous improvement fuels excellence. Educators model curiosity, use evidence with purpose, and innovate relentlessly to ensure meaningful growth for every student.

 

Arlington Heights School District 25 serves its community proudly. Our vision, Together Today to Transform Tomorrow, is a way of daily life and is felt by simply stepping foot inside one of our buildings. Our world is ever changing and we want our students to be comfortable innovating and adapting. Our vision provides us two lenses, the lens of today and the lens of what is to come in the future. District 25’s students, staff and administrators embody this vision and pass it along throughout the Arlington Heights community.

District 25 serves the central portion of Arlington Heights, with seven elementary (K-5) schools and two middle schools (grades 6-8). We open our doors to just under 5,550 students and just about 850 staff members every day. Students and teachers are encouraged to be the student/teacher they came here to be.

The District believes in a student’s ability to personalize his/her learning, all while exploring mathematics, literacy, science, social studies, world languages, the fine arts and technology. District 25 believes in a mindful and purposeful learner, and that shows up in the way technology is integrated into our learning. Our middle school curriculum includes instruction in our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math), Digital Arts & Design, and Communication Media Arts classes as well as with our Drama, Music, and Art classes.

Arlington Heights is in our roots. We recently polled our entire staff and found out that 41% of our staff currently lives in Arlington Heights. Just over 10% of our staff attended District 25 schools. District 25's strong tie to this community drives our passion and desire to give back.
