Key to the Coding of Public School Districts
and Schools
School districts and schools in Illinois are identified by
a unique code. This code is a combination of 15 numbers,
or 14 numbers and one letter. The first 11 numbers (or
10 numbers and one letter) of the code identify the school
district. The last four numbers identify the particular
school in the school district.
