About Oak Ridge School
Oak Ridge School is an elementary school in North Palos School District 117 in Palos Hills, home of the Mustangs. We hold Model Professional Learning Community status, which we renew every three years with data showing continued results, and our teachers work in collaborative teams built around learning and results.
Math support is available for grades 2 to 5, and families can submit a social emotional support referral when a child needs extra help.
Our students perform as well as study. Oak Ridge and Glen Oaks students have staged Lion King Kids together, and our annual Family Read Night brings Mustangs and their families in for an evening of reading. Breakfast and lunch are free for every student, and a PTA supports school events.
