Military Families
North Shore School District 112 is honored to serve the military families who call Fort Sheridan, Highland Park and Highwood home. With a number of students whose parents are active-duty service members, we are committed to providing the support, resources and opportunities they need to thrive.
We recognize the unique experiences military-connected students face, from school transitions to family deployments, and we work to ensure they feel welcomed, supported and set up for success.
This page is designed to support military families moving to our area. You’ll find general information about our schools, enrollment, and ways to connect with our team. We will continue to add more details over time to make this a helpful resource for both new and current military families.
