Dr. Lisa Small The mission of Township High School District 211 is to serve the educational needs of the community – and thus to inspire all students to successfully contribute to the world.

Our District value statements highlight the importance of “academic rigor” and “education and learning” by stating that we value “engaging curriculum built upon high-quality educational experiences to develop critical thinking” and “the continuous pursuit of knowledge, preparation, and readiness to pursue future endeavors.” Our rigorous and relevant District 211 academic curriculum provides teachers with an organized framework that enables them to continually monitor student progress toward the mastery of learning standards.
