My country club is made up primarily of Chicago/Surburban teachers retired on six figure pensions. In Northern IL you'll have a separate school district for every 2500 citizens or so and they each have quarter million dollar superintendent positions with a massive high dollar staff. Nothing surprises me regarding teacher pensions.

The money the state of Illinois owes in pensions will eventually bankrupt the state. With the state bleeding residents and the bad reputation the state government has I don't see this ending any other way. It's sad but the B.S. politicians in this state put the state in this position.

That is not true.

My town of 12000 has like 5 districts. I can rattle off as many towns as you like.

I live in Lockport, we cross over with Homer Glen for districts. 50,000+ combined.
3 districts
33c k-8
92 k-8
205 Lockport Township High School
If your math checked out, there would be 20 districts.
I assume you are talking about Morris, IL. From my research they have 4 districts which is asinine. I can’t confirm 4 separate superintendents but I can 3. That is a joke, what’s the community doing about it? That’s not the norm in the actual suburbs of Chicago.
Oswego has one district with two HS in it.
Naperville 203 - 14 elementary, 5 Jr HS and 2 HS.
I can go on and on.
FYI, I’m not a teacher, admin or have anything to with the educational system...far from it.
It’a broken but I can’t let you just lie about school districts in the Chicagoland area.

You as well?
And at least the HS district has at least significant chunks of Crest Hill as well.

Yes I do and I enjoy it for the most part.
Ya, you are correct, crest hill and Fairmont but that’s a small %, unless I’m wrong.
@siucubfan8 Not 100% sure. And I think Fairmont's technically part of Lockport, at least unless Wikipedia leads me astray.
EDIT: And as far as I can tell, Naperville's also covered by Indian Prarie High School District 204.
Apparently they wanted to name Neuqua Valley "Indian Prarie High School" until they figured out what the kids would probably call it

I will say 33C has done a great job the past two weeks.

Yup Naperville/Aurora has 204.
I have way more examples to prove Morris wrong....but anyways.
it might also be like saying that where I grew up, Woodridge, has one county government for every 10k or so people because it's got parts in DuPage, Will, and Cook counties.

Morris is pretty corrupt. Not much hope here.
