Lincoln-Way East ranked 33 and Lincoln-Way Central ranked 44 out of the 654 public high schools in the state. Both are in the top 50 in the State of Illinois on the PSAE test, according to statistics in the Chicago Tribune. The PSAE measures the achievement of junior students relative to the Illinois Learning Standards. The two-day PSAE exam consists of the ACT, Work Keys and ISBE-developed tests. Lincoln-Way High School District 210 is also the lowest per pupil in operating cost in the six county Chicago metropolitan area. In 2007 the district schools were ranked in the top 9% of high schools in the State of Illinois. Lincoln-Way East and Lincoln-Way Central rank number one and two for the Will County schools.

  • Each year the Lincoln-Way district continues to grow, gaining an average of 250 students per annum. Both Lincoln-Way East and Central are built to accommodate 3750 students. During the 2004-2005 school year, Lincoln-Way East had a total of 3400 students, with 2700 students at Lincoln-Way Central. The 2007-2008 school year at Lincoln-Way East had over 4100 students enrolled, which has caused massive overcrowding issues in classrooms and hallways.
  • On March 21st, 2006, voters approved - by 20% - a proposal to build 2 new schools in the next three years. Lincoln-Way North opened to Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors in 2008. North is located at the corner of Vollmer Road and Harlem, serving Frankfort Square , parts of Mokena and Tinley Park. The mascot is the Lincoln-Way North Phoenix. Their colors are Vegas gold and black. Lincoln-Way West opened to the same classes in 2009 at Illinois Highway and Gougar Road. Their mascot is the Lincoln-Way West Warriors, with their new colors being orange and black.
  • All four Lincoln-Way schools are intended to have equal facilities. The two new high schools are built to the same specifications as the two current high schools which boast very similar high-quality facilities. These include a large swimming pool, auditorium, field house, turf football field, lighted baseball and softball fields, and many other amenities. Both schools have 103 classrooms. The creation of four separate schools, as opposed to the current two-school system, is expected to provide greater academic and extracurricular opportunities to the students. Each school will see an enrollment of near 2,000. The Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra's home is the newly constructed Lincoln-Way North Auditorium. This was built with the orchestra in mind and is fully soundproof with many other great features.
