These districts are organized by regions set by the Illinois State Board of Education and not by the actual county boundaries; school districts can cross county boundaries, and school districts with administrative headquarters and/or schools only in certain counties can include territory in one or more other counties that do not have schools operated by that district.
The state classifies Chicago Public Schools as its own classification, and it classifies other school districts in other ways. All school districts are classified as separate governments by the U.S. Census Bureau, and Illinois has no school systems dependent on another layer of government.[2]
