Golf School District 67

District 67 owns Frank Hren Discovery Park, which is adjacent to Golf Middle School.

Frank P. Hren was a teacher and principal at the former Golf Junior High School,[5] and the park was named in his honor.

Goals of the Classrooms First initiative include focusing on literacy and on science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) as a distinct part of elementary and secondary curricula, aligning curricula between the elementary and high school districts, creating operational efficiencies, providing increased access to educational infrastructure to the elementary school district, establishing a uniform system of curricular targets and accountability, and increasing high school and college readiness.

[8] District 67's Business Manager is Christine Hoffman, who previously worked as a certified public accountant.

Vacancies created by death or resignation are filled by appointment (by the remaining board members) until the following election.

District schools received the Illinois Honor Roll Award for Academic Excellence in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012.

[12] Golf Middle School recently received a Blue Ribbon Award from the Illinois Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance.

The first Golf School was a prototypical "one room country schoolhouse" that was little more than a wooden shed with windows.

The single room was expanded to four, then replaced by a Works Progress Administration-built concrete and masonry structure capable of serving hundreds of students.

The baby boom after World War II saw the landscape being converted from rural to suburban, and a sudden population growth.

The Village of Golf was content to remain a hamlet, but the municipalities that surrounded it, Glenview, Morton Grove and Niles, expanded rapidly, consuming all unincorporated land.

Shortly thereafter the Golf Junior High School building was expanded with modern, air-conditioned classrooms in the new wing.

The Village of Golf, after which the district was named, decided to send its children to public schools in Glenview.
