An overview of Chicago public schools
The federal directory lists 650 public schools in Chicago, IL: 459 elementary, 10 middle, 170 high, 11 combined or other. The 648 schools that reported 2024–25 membership enrolled 326,712 students, an average of 504 per school. The largest campus is Lane Technical High School (4,604 students), and the largest elementary school is Disney Elem Magnet School (1,384).
Chicago Public Schools District 299 operates the most schools here (641), and 2 regular districts have at least one Chicago campus, plus 7 charter, service, or other agencies. City names come from school mailing addresses, which often differ from district or municipal boundaries.
Across schools that reported staffing, the median student–teacher ratio is 13.3:1, similar to the statewide school median of 13:1. A ratio counts classroom-teacher FTE against total enrollment, so specialized programs and part-time staffing can move it; ask schools for actual class sizes by grade.
School choice options include 114 charter schools, 184 magnet schools. Application windows and lotteries usually open months before the school year.
Among 169 high and combined schools with 2021–22 civil-rights data, 109 reported students enrolled in AP courses and 143 of 172 reported computer-science classes. Confirm current course catalogs directly with each school.
About 74% of students in reporting schools were eligible for free or reduced-price meals in 2024–25. This describes the community served; it is not a quality signal, and community-eligibility schools can report differently.
