Plainfield's first school opened in 1833, but the Plainfield Community Consolidated School District 202 was not established until 1925. Encompassing 64 square miles, the district includes Plainfield, Romeoville, Bolingbrook, Naperville, Crest Hill, Lockport, the unincorporated Will and Kendall counties and parts of Joliet. The area has gone through a building boom over the last two decades, resulting in an enrollment that has skyrocketed from just 500 students and five schools in 1990 to almost 30,000 students and 25 schools in 2010.
