Wilmette Junior HIgh School is dedicated to meeting the educational and developmental needs of emerging adolescents through a caring partnership of students, staff, parents, and community.
Wilmette Junior High School serves approximately 800 students in grades seven and eight. WJHS serves the majority of the Village of Wilmette and a portion of Glenview. This is a large school which works to give students an individualized educational experience; the philosophy “one size does not fit all” is obvious at the Junior High. We have Curriculum Differentiation teachers in each grade who work with teachers to tailor students’ education experiences to fit their individual abilities, learning styles, and interests. We have several different classes offered to meet students’ developmental needs in the area of mathematics. Students are engaged in cutting edge classroom activities that allow for exploration and student growth. WJHS is truly a place where students can find their strengths and hone their skills for high school.
