PARK EAST SCHOOL

Park East School is a public elementary school that is part of the Grayslake CCSD 46 school district, located in Round Lake, IL with about 405 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 4th Grade. With about 28 teachers, Park East School has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Park East School, located in Round Lake, Illinois, serves as a specialized educational facility within the Round Lake Area School District 116. It is primarily recognized for its commitment to providing a supportive and structured environment tailored to students who require specific behavioral, social-emotional, or academic interventions. By maintaining smaller class sizes and utilizing specialized instructional strategies, the school aims to help students navigate challenges that might hinder their progress in a traditional classroom setting, ultimately fostering personal growth and academic readiness.

Beyond its core curriculum, Park East emphasizes the development of the "whole child" by integrating therapeutic support and social-emotional learning into the daily school experience. The faculty and staff work collaboratively with families and district partners to create individualized plans that encourage positive behavioral outcomes and self-regulation skills. Through this focused approach, Park East strives to empower its students to overcome barriers, build confidence, and successfully transition toward their long-term educational goals.
