A
Message from the Superintendent
Mount
Prospect School District 57 has served the citizens
of the village of Mount Prospect since 1896. In the
114 years since William Busse opened the doors of the
District’s first school, tens of thousands of
families and students have attended the District’s
schools. These alumni have moved on to success in
careers and lives that now blanket the globe.
This
“Tradition of Excellence”, our motto, is
continued today by the four schools that house District
57 students. Approximately 2,200 students are currently
enrolled in Pre-K through eighth grade programs at Westbrook,
Fairview, Lincoln and Lions Park Schools. Our mission
is to ensure that these students achieve their full
potential, so that they will become contributing citizens
of our global economy. Rising test scores, well-maintained
buildings, and, most importantly, dedicated, well-trained
teachers continue to draw families and students to a
growing District 57.
We
welcome you and wish that you will take an active role
in our Alumni Association. Please take the time to interact
with the District 57 Alumni Association to strengthen
the web of relationships which binds us to the Mount
Prospect community. Read on to find out more about the
past, present, and future of District 57. Again, welcome,
and we look forward to meeting you at a future Alumni
Association event.
