I believe Barrington 220 is truly an amazing school district. I have worked in several positions in D220 (Teacher, Principal, and Administrator), which has afforded me a unique perspective of the numerous ways that students learn and grow within our different school communities. I have also experienced firsthand my own children thriving as students and benefitting from all that Barrington 220 has to offer. As Superintendent of Schools, I look forward to building upon our strong academic programs and our rich history of innovation as we implement our Framework 220 Strategic Plan.

School History

Barrington Middle School-Prairie Campus is one of two middle schools in the Barrington 220 School District. Prairie Campus opened in 1992 along the southern border of Barrington. When it came to naming the school, many community members commented on how the plot of land looked like a savannah. Savannah almost became the building’s given name, until a Board of Education member noted the land was actually a prairie. The halls, walls and staff have embraced learners for 30 years and today Prairie Campus is known for its excellence in education, innovative programs and supportive community.

The original Hough Street School, known as South Side School, opened its doors in 1855, making it the oldest school in the Barrington 220 School District. The old frame schoolhouse stood in the exact spot of the current Hough Street School playground. In 1905 a new building was constructed on Hough Street and it became the original home of Barrington High School, until BHS moved to its current location on Main Street in 1949. Located in the heart of downtown Barrington, the current Hough building was built in 1967 and it is a prominent feature in Barrington’s local history.

Our staff is dedicated to the strong relationships we have built together with our school community.

North Barrington Elementary is one of eight elementary schools in the Barrington 220 School District, serving grades K-5. The original North Barrington Elementary School opened in 1946, consolidating five one-room schoolhouses in the area. At the time of the school’s dedication, it was heralded as a “school for the motor age” because of special design features that accommodated students arriving by car and bus. Fifty years later, voters approved a referendum to rebuild North Barrington at the same site. The new NBS opened to students in 1998.

La Mora,

At Sunny Hill we are committed to providing an atmosphere that is welcoming and supportive to our students’ socialemotional development and academic success. We work together as a Sunny Hill family to support our students. This family includes our passionate and dedicated staff, parents, and community partners. Our students are also reflective in their own learning experiences and take ownership of their efforts and success!

School History

Sunny Hill Elementary is one of eight elementary schools in the Barrington 220 School District, serving grades K-5. The school opened in 1954 as a K-8 school. At that time, the building sat on a hill surrounded by farms to the north, east and south. It is said Sunny Hill received its name from a family who was walking up the hill to school on a sunny day. Today, Sunny Hill serves as a hub in the Carpentersville community. Barrington 220’s Bilingual Parents Advisory Council (BPAC) holds its meetings and events at Sunny Hill. It is also a club site for the Boys and Girls Club of Dundee Township. In 2022 the Illinois State Board of Education granted Sunny Hill the Phillip Jackson Freedom Schools Grant, which is used to enhance students’ after school and summer enrichment offerings.

SCHOOL PROFILE

The Early Learning Center believes in a nurturing, safe and respectful learning environment to support our youngest learners. We enrich, engage, encourage, nurture and treasure each child in our school.

School History

The Barrington Early Learning Center is a free early childhood education program that serves at-risk preschool students ages 3 to 5 years-old in the Barrington 220 School District. The ELC qualifies prospective students through screenings offered throughout the school year in the areas of pre-academic skills, gross and fine motor skills, vision and hearing, social skills, and speech/language. Students are placed according to their individual needs. When the original Early Learning Center opened in 1986, it was located at the former Woodland Elementary School in Carpentersville. The current state of the art ELC building opened in Barrington in 2010, sharing a campus with Prairie Middle School. This proximity allows for a unique partnership between the two schools, in which the ELC benefits from service projects by Prairie students.
