Forrestville Valley is conveniently located in the center of several major employment areas, including Dixon, Freeport, Rockford, Rochelle, Savanna, Sterling, and Thomson. Forrestville Valley covers nearly 200 square miles of rural Northwest Illinois and services the communities of Forreston, Leaf River, and German Valley, as well as the smaller towns of Baileyville, Adeline, and Brookville, and their surrounding areas. With an enrollment of 835 students in Pre-Kindergarten to 12th Grade, Forrestville Valley offers a classroom ratio of 20:1 and grade level classes of approximately 60 students.

 

Forrestville Valley follows a strategic plan that is revised every three years. In 2018, Forreston Grade School and Forreston Junior/Senior High School received an exemplary designation from the Illinois State Board of Education. Both schools are pleased to announce that they are in the top ten percent of all Illinois schools. The Illinois School Report Card offers detailed state data for the district and reports a 97% Graduation Rate for Forreston High School. All Forrestville Valley students are offered 1:1 technology.
