For many, a critical factor in home selection can at times be driven solely by the education opportunities offered in a neighborhood. Chicago offers public, independent and religious based schooling opportunities. Chicago Public Schools employ over 44,000 persons and provide services to 420,000 pre-school to high school students daily.

Moreover, the Chicago Public School (CPS) system also offers a variety of specialized schools, magnet schools and honors programs. There are currently 481 elementary schools and 115 high schools in the CPS system and choosing a school that is right for your children is an extremely important decision when choosing the perfect home. We try to make this process as easy as possible with a few links that will help you make the best decision for your children.
