The original Bolingbrook High School campus, which opened in 1974, was located on Lee Lane and Blair Lane within the village. The former campus is now known as Brooks Middle School. Continued community growth prompted the passage of an April 2002 referendum for a new high school located at Schmidt Road and Lily Cache Lane, which opened in August 2004.
