During a period of its history, Warrenville was the home of the Warrenville Seminary, a boarding finishing school that catered to wealthy Chicago families and underscored the community's concentration on quality education, a tradition of excellence that is continued today. Community Unit School District 200 serves Warrenville, neighboring Wheaton, and portions of three other west suburban communities with 13 elementary schools, four middle schools, and two high schools. It has a total enrollment exceeding 14,000 students.
Warrenville students attend two elementary schools which are located within the city's boundaries.
The curriculum focuses on the basics of language arts and mathematics, augmented by music, art, and physical education. Early on, students are introduced to computers. There are classes for gifted and talented students, as well as for those who are developmentally disabled. When moving on to middle school, students are bused to Hubble Middle School in Wheaton, where the enrollment is nearly 1,200. Students are carefully guided through the transition from the structure of elementary school to the freedom and personal responsibility of high school.
