East Northport and Elwood Schools

There's a house we like in East Northport in the Elwood school district. Can anyone provide feedback (good and bad) on this area and school district? Any areas we should avoid? Would you buy in this area and district?

Feel free to FM. Thanks!

Re: East Northport and Elwood Schools

The only concerns I've heard from clients who have grown up in the area is that Elwood is a small school district compared to the surrounding ones. I know in past years, Elwood SD has sometimes had issues passing their budgets, which led to cuts in programs (like extracurricular and sports offerings). But I'm not sure if that has continued to be an issue in recent years.

I think you definitely have to do your own research into the district (as well as ask for opinions), but then weigh everything out yourself. I've learned that is a positive for one person/family is a negative for another. It's not one size fits all.

It's very small, one elementary, one middle and one high school, so your kids are with the same children from K to 12th.
