Honoring the School District "Founders"
In the early 1920's, the Shorewood School, now called Atwater School, was overcrowded from a rapidly growing school age population.. Through the courageous and visionary leadership of both the School Board and Village Board of Trustees, the Village of Shorewood took a giant step in the development of its outstanding educational system with the decision to build Lake Bluff Elementary and a multi-building high school campus.
