Melrose Park, IL is a peaceful and community-oriented village. Why has it been so successful within the last 150 years? Probably due to the quality of its education. There are 20 Melrose Park, IL schools in the area, and more outside the village. First, let’s consider the village’s public schools. The Board of Education District 89 on S. 8th Avenue is joined by the Grant School, the Jane Addams School, the Mannheim Junior High School, and the Melrose Park School. Closing out the list of public grade school facilities, there is also the Scott School and the Stevenson School.
There are only two public high schools and they are the Proviso East High School
On S. 1st Avenue and the Proviso West High School on W. Wolf Road. There are also seven private and special interest schools. Many of these are Christian schools and include the likes of the Apostles Lutheran School, the H. McNelty School, the Sacred Heart School, St. Charles Borromeo School and the St. Paul Lutheran School. Private high schools include the St. Patrick High School on Belmont and the Walther Lutheran High School on W. Chicago Avenue.
What about Melrose Park colleges? The Triton College Adult Reading Program is joined by the large Triton College facility on N. Fifth Avenue. Triton College is actually three miles away from the city center. Other examples of Melrose Park college facilities in and outside the village area, include the Elmhurst College, Morton College, Devry Institute of Technology and the College Of Dupage.
These schools are committed to educating the newest generation of Melrose Park. You can be confident that if you relocate to this village (more like a city-sized village!) that your children will be in good hands. Melrose Park, with its suburban and modern surroundings, is a great place to raise a family.
