The first settlers arrived in the Barrington area in the 1830s. Since that time, residents have been attracted to the area by its appealing natural resources, and its accessibility to the larger metropolitan area.
The village operates four park areas and two country clubs are in the community as well. Most home sites are within Cuba Township, and therefore in Barrington School District 220. The eastern portion of North Barrington lies within Ela Township and is served by Lake Zurich School District 95.
Winnetka District 36 schools have a long tradition of progressive education and parental and community involvement. Ten years before the Village was incorporated in 1869, families in the town made private donations to finance the first public school. Today, children in District 36 attend one of three elementary schools (Crow Island, Greeley, and Hubbard Woods); a fifth/sixth grade center (The Skokie School); and a seventh/eighth grade middle school (Carleton Washburne School).
Award-winning New Trier Township High School delivers an academic program comprehensive in scope and providing the rigor of critical thought. Each department creates dynamic, relevant and challenging curricular offerings for students.
