Dear
Friends,
Welcome to Evergreen Park School District 124!
Our
mission is to inspire all children to achieve their full potential
through comprehensive instruction, innovation, and programs that
develop intellectual and personal growth.
With tomorrow’s leaders in our classrooms today,
helping students achieve high levels of educational excellence and
supporting 21st century skill development is at the
forefront of all we do.
We are proud of the success of students who graduate from our school
district, and of our current students’ academic and educational
achievement. Our students’ success is measured not only by test
scores and grade point averages, but by their preparedness to enter
a global marketplace as effective communicators, problem-solvers,
critical thinkers, and successful members of society who take action
and inspire others.
As parents and educators, there is no better feeling than knowing we
have played an important role in helping prepare our children to be
life-long learners and giving them the wings to fly.
