Join us in celebrating retirements, promotions, and new opportunities!
Join us on a thrilling journey through Lake Forest High School's annual showcase of talent, creativity, and community spirit February 20-22.
We’re proud to announce that our Scouts have won this year’s film festival with a compelling silent film inspired by the real-life journey of Tony Daniel, one of the world’s top professional comic book artists. This year’s festival prompt, Creativity Unleashed, challenged students to explore unique and imaginative ideas.
This is more than just an event—it’s a chance to connect with some of the most accomplished and influential executives in our community.
It's possible! Our spring musical is already here, and we're so excited for it.
Lake Forest High School’s Isaac Arciniega delivered an impressive performance at the IHSA State Regional Boys Bowling Tournament on January 17, 2025, at Bertrand’s Lanes in Waukegan.
We're so proud of our scouts!
On January 14, 2025, our elementary school principals hosted a virtual kindergarten information night. If you weren't able to attend, please find the recording and materials from that night here.

Portrait of Our Learners
The Portrait of a Learner process will help us develop an updated and unified vision among Districts 65, 67, and 115 for the twenty-first century competencies that Lake Forest, Lake Bluff, and Knollwood students need to succeed in college, career, and beyond.
Confidence
Deer Path Middle School held the first annual Adventure Days, an exciting new fall tradition thanks to a Spirit of 67 Foundation grant! Students traveled to Boundless Adventures in Wisconsin with their advisories to participate in activities designed to foster group belonging and build confidence including an aerial challenge course, zip lines, ax throwing, geocaching and orienteering, and nature hikes.
Adaptability
Did you know that more than 85% of LFHS students are engaged in school activities? That is, due, in part, to the work and adaptability of our student leaders. Several Scouts attended the Illinois Directors of Student Activities (IDSA) Student Leadership Workshop at Lyons Township High School in October. This opportunity for students from across the state focused on a wide range of leadership skills including team-building, communication, evaluation, appropriate risk-taking, and getting involved in a positive way.
Critical Thinking
Two groups of Cherokee Elementary School fourth-graders placed 5th and 9th in the Illinois Stock Market Game (SMG). The SMG equips students with valuable academic and life skills such as critical thinking, math, economics, and personal finance, and introduces young people to saving and investing through a simulation of the stock and bond markets with their own virtual $100,000 investment portfolio!
Communication
Congratulations to Ryder Gamrath, Milana Yanev, Simon Pasquesi, Elise Rafiani, Ava Bleck, Jillian Duer, Chip Bailey, Grace Donovan, Kayden Prieto, and Ford Davie! These New Media students recently traveled to New York City to participate in the All-American High School Film Festival. While in the Big Apple, they learned from top industry professionals and met with mentors including LFHS alumni Lain Kienzle (‘10) and Tim Wong (‘11), and took a look behind the scenes in the control room for the live broadcast of CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360.
Citizenship
In October, Everett Elementary School students celebrated Unity Day by wearing their favorite orange-colored clothing! Unity Day is the signature event of National Bullying Prevention Month with the goal of promoting kindness, acceptance, citizenship, and inclusion to prevent bullying.
Empathy
LFHS Sociology students helped load the truck at Fill a Heart 4 Kids and pack food boxes! Their class donated $350 and over 50 boxes of cereal and pasta and on that day alone, Fill a Heart 4 Kids was distributing 250 food boxes to local students in need.
