Of the 134,443 students attending DuPage County schools, 49% were white. Hispanic students were the second largest ethnicity, making up 25.6% of DuPage County students.
In the previous school year, white students were also the most common group in DuPage County, representing 49.9% of the student body.
Glenbard East High School had the most even distribution of races among county schools, including 37.4% Hispanic students, 37.4% white students, 11.4% Asian students, 8.9% African American students, 2.5% multiracial students, and 2.3% American Indian students.
The Illinois State Board of Education’s budget for fiscal year 2026 will increase from nearly $10.8 billion to about $11.2 billion. This includes a $307 million boost for K–12 schools, marking the smallest annual increase since 2020.
The agency has paused about $50 million in funding previously allocated through the Evidence-Based Funding formula for the Property Tax Relief Grant while reviewing its impact on local tax relief. Officials say the pause could affect the timing and amount of property tax relief available to taxpayers.
