ZIP Code 60073 · Round Lake, Illinois
Lake County · 20,095 counted · 9 districts
Each percentage here is a share of the 20,095 homes counted in ZIP Code 60073, not the chance that any one address is in that district. Enrollment follows the street: two houses on opposite sides of the same road can be in different districts, and only the district office can say which.
The districts named for the early grades in ZIP Code 60073, Round Lake, Illinois are not the districts named for high school, and the set changes in both directions: 3 districts arrive for high school only, 4 run the early grades and stop, and 2 serve both bands. 9 districts hold the 20,095 homes counted here between them, and Round Lake Community Unit School District 116 is the largest by homes. The largest share leaves 8,324 homes elsewhere: 8,324 homes with Grayslake Consolidated Community School District 46, Big Hollow School District 38, Lake Villa Community Consolidated School District 41 and 2 more districts.
The early grades are divided many ways

Have a street address?
A ZIP Code names every district that can serve the area; a street address settles which one serves a home. The Census Bureau geocoder takes an exact address and returns its school districts from the current boundary files, free and with no account.

The set of names changes in both directions
Grayslake Community High School District 127, Grant Community High School District 124 and Mundelein Consolidated High School District 120 are named for high school here and for no elementary grades, and Grayslake Consolidated Community School District 46, Big Hollow School District 38, Lake Villa Community Consolidated School District 41 and one more district run the early grades and no more. An address on the wrong street can therefore change district at the change of grade and land in a district that was never part of its elementary answer, while a neighbor two blocks away keeps one name the whole way through.
What one district name costs in 60073
A lookup that answers ZIP Code 60073 with one district name has to pick one of the names below and drop the rest. Measured against the 20,095 homes counted here, for the early grades it is wrong for 8,324 homes and for high school it is wrong for 8,324 homes. That is the whole difference between this page and a one-line answer: the same federal file, read to the end instead of to the first row.

Look up 60073 again, or look up another ZIP Code
The lookup holds every ZIP Code area in the country with homes in it, including the ones with no page of their own. Opening it at 60073 recomputes the same 20,095 homes from the same snapshot, and typing five other digits answers for somewhere else. No server is asked for the answer: the whole index travels with the lookup page itself.
What to do next
Ask the district office to confirm your street address: look on its site for a school locator, a find my school tool or an attendance zone map, or call the office.
A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: 8,324 of the 20,095 homes counted in 60073 sit outside the district holding the most of them, and the line between the two runs along streets rather than around the postal area.
District websites and phone numbers here come from the NCES Common Core of Data directory, 2024-25 school year, filed under the same district ID as the Census boundary files. Where it lists no usable website, none is printed rather than guessed.
What this site can hand you instead:
If a house purchase depends on the answer, ask the district itself for written confirmation of that exact address. A listing is not a district record, and neither is this page.
Where these numbers come from
The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file, so a fast-growing area may have changed since; ZIP Codes here are the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas; a share is a share of homes, not the chance that one address is in a district; and a district is not a school attendance zone. Every source, file and caveat is on the method page.
