Financial Advisor 2250 Point Blvd Suite 126 Elgin, IL 60123 847-426-8755 A s the 6th largest school district in Illinois based on student enrollment, District 300 serves nearly 21,000 students while covering 118 square miles. District 300’s central mission is to ensure that all students are college or career ready upon graduation and Superintendent Fred Heid has developed innovative programs to address community needs and ensure the success of this mission. Since 2015, District 300 has implemented a tuition free full-day kindergarten program district wide, incorporated art and STEM labs into elementary schools, developed Pathway Programs (including Advanced Manufacturing at Hampshire High School, Entrepreneurship at Dundee-Crown High School, and Information Technology and Computer Science at Jacobs High School) that provide students with the opportunity to earn career credentials, and worked on over 817 action items in the District’s Five-Year Strategic Plan (monitor the progress of the District 300 Strategic Plan at d300.org/StrategicPlan). Last year, District 300 graduated 1,588 students who earned $18.8 million in college scholarships. 1,806 students participated in early college coursework. And through our Accelerate College Program, ten District 300 students received their college diplomas from Elgin Community College, a day before their high school diplomas, completely tuition-free. D300’s financial planning and reporting have received numerous state and national awards. Notably, District 300 has maintained a balanced budget for the past several years and historically has one of the lowest tax rates among all K-12 school districts in Kane County and McHenry County.
