About Elm Middle School
Welcome to Elm Middle School, home of the Cougars!
Located in the Near West Chicago suburb of Elmwood Park, Ill., Elm Middle School provides a comprehensive, standards-based public education to 678 students in grades 6-8 as part of Elmwood Park Community Unit School District 401.
We offer a rigorous three-year curriculum organized within the framework of our recently implemented College & Career Pathways program. In the most recent edition of the annual Illinois Report Cards, which covered the 2019-20 school year, we received a summative designation of Commendable School.
Elm is proud to be the District's only middle school.
