Bucktown is served by Region 2 of the Chicago Public Schools (CPS), offering charter, magnet and neighborhood schools for those purchasing Bucktown real estate. CPS offers a wide assortment of public, private and parochial schools throughout the Chicago area.
CPS was built on the concept of neighborhood schools, with a variety of private and parochial schools nearby. Families purchasing Bucktown real estate are not limited to attending neighborhood schools, but can apply and enroll in Chicago magnet, or charter schools, which have programs designed to spark children's interest in specialized curricula. Schools offer advanced curriculum in areas such as math and finance, fine and performing arts, international studies, law, science and medicine, military, special education and alternative schools.
High school students are also offered choices in attending school, and may apply to magnet, charter or another neighborhood school. Extensive information on individual schools can be found on the Chicago Public Schools website, including individual school’s report cards and achievement levels.
Higher education is also available within Bucktown and throughout the Chicago area. The state of Illinois offers a nationally respected system of 9 public universities on 12 campuses, 48 community colleges, and 124 independent colleges and universities. The city of Chicago hosts nearly 50 of these schools, offering a diverse selection of studies, including art and design, business, computer and technology, medicine, law, theology, and culinary arts. More information on higher education can be found at the Illinois Board of Higher Education website.
