Dr. Fred Rayfield

Welcome to the Cook County School System web site. It is certainly an honor to serve as superintendent of this school system with its extensive history of pride and accomplishments. The current expectations of our local system are tremendous. We are convinced that the administrators, faculty and staff of our school system demonstrate a strong commitment toward fulfilling those obligations daily.

The task of achieving success in education will require the teamwork and dedication of employees, students, parents and our community. As a focused team, we can create and sustain a school system focused on the needs of all students and the community.

It is our desire to influence student achievement and success by serving as role models of excellence every day. Again, we welcome you to our school system and invite you to become a part of "our team" as we strive to create and sustain an environment of excellence in education for Cook County.
