Living near Wheaton Warrenville South HS

The area, not just the school

Living around Wheaton Warrenville South puts you in the heart of one of DuPage County's most established suburbs. Wheaton is a town with real bones: a walkable, tree-lined downtown full of brick storefronts, locally owned shops, and year-round community events, anchored by a Metra station that keeps the city close without giving up the quiet. Families come here for the schools and stay for the lifestyle, and you feel that pride the moment you drive through the older neighborhoods of mature oaks and front porches.

The commute is one of Wheaton's quiet advantages. The Metra Union Pacific West Line runs right through downtown with two stops in town, so a car-free ride into Chicago's Ogilvie Transportation Center is part of daily life for a lot of residents. When you are not commuting, the area gives you Cantigny Park, the former estate of Tribune publisher Robert McCormick with formal gardens and two museums, plus the Illinois Prairie Path, one of the country's original rail trails, threading right through town for runners and cyclists.

Housing here has range. You will find classic center-entrance colonials and storybook older homes near downtown, newer construction and roomier lots toward the edges, and townhomes and condos for buyers who want lock-and-leave living near the train. Prices reflect the demand for the schools and the downtown, but the variety means there is usually a way in at several price points.

About Wheaton Warrenville South High School

Wheaton Warrenville South traces its roots to Wheaton High School, which opened in 1876, making it one of the oldest public high school lineages in DuPage County. Over the decades the school carried several names, including Wheaton Community High School and Wheaton Central High School, as the district grew and reorganized its buildings. The current building opened in 1973 and became Wheaton Warrenville South High School in 1992. At that renaming the hyphen between Wheaton and Warrenville was deliberately dropped to symbolize the two communities coming together. The Tiger nickname and colors carried forward from Wheaton Central, a tradition that includes football legend Red Grange.

Wheaton Warrenville South offers 17 Advanced Placement courses, with classes organized into Intermediate and Advanced or AP levels under a weighted GPA system. According to the Illinois Report Card cited by Wikipedia, the school posted a 95% graduation rate, with 85% of graduates enrolling in a two-year or four-year college within 12 months.
