A little trip down memory lane to 2009 at Wheaton Warrenville South High School. #TBT #YourCommunitySchools
Did you know District 200's math and reading growth scores are trending above the National and State average since the COVID-19 pandemic?
We are proud to share that Community Unit School District 200 has made significant learning recovery in the areas of math and reading based on the Educational Recovery Scorecard, which is a report on post pandemic academic recovery from 2022-2023 issued by The Center of Education Policy at Harvard University and The Education Opportunity Project at Stanford University.
Based on the report, when District 200 students returned to testing after the pandemic in 2022, there was no learning loss in math scores, and 2023 results improved as well. In reading, District 200 students made up more than a year’s worth of learning in 2022, compared to the state’s average of half a year of learning recovery.

Franklin Middle School hosted the IGSMA District VII, Area 2 Solo & Ensemble Contest on Feb. 24. The event invited band, orchestra, piano, and vocal students from surrounding middle schools to prepare solos and ensembles for adjudicated performances. Franklin, Edison, Monroe, Hubble, Clarendon Hills Middle School, Lisle Jr. High, Avery Coonley, and Wheaton Christian all participated this year!
This was an extremely meaningful experience for students because they worked with peers toward a common goal, and received constructive and positive feedback from professional musicians.
Thank you to Franklin for hosting and congratulations to all District 200 students who participated in the event! #YourCommunitySchools
