The district's school portfolio includes Maple School (grades 6-8, located at 2370 Shermer Road, Northbrook), Wescott School (kindergarten through grade 5, at 1820 Western Avenue, Northbrook), and Willowbrook School (preK-5, at 2500 Happy Hollow Road, Glenview).

Tammaru, who has held the role since July 1, 2023, with governance provided by an elected seven-member Board of Education.

The district's core instructional and operational technology stack includes PowerSchool as the Student Information System with a Parent Portal for enrollment, grades, and attendance; Google Workspace for staff and student productivity; Finalsite as the website platform; NWEA MAP assessments for fall and spring benchmarking in reading, language usage, and mathematics (grades 1-8); and the RULER social-emotional learning program developed by the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence. A 1:1 iPad program provides each student with a personal device, supported by an iPad Insurance Program and Digital Citizenship curriculum. Specialized academic offerings include the Navigate gifted/talented program in English Language Arts and Mathematics, Fast-Paced Mathematics for top-quartile performers (grades 4-8), and the Literacy Studio model at the middle school level. The CogAT assessment is administered to students in grades 3 and 5, and the ACCESS test is mandated for English Language Learners in grades K-8. The district implements 46 languages spoken among its student body.

District 30's revenue model is primarily funded by local property taxes from the Northbrook and Glenview communities, supplemented by ancillary fee-based programs including Kid Connection Preschool tuition ($4,964 annually for 2026-27 with a $672 deposit), transportation services through First Student ($491-$810 per student with 25% multi-rider discounts), curriculum fees ($160-$185 per student with May registration discounts), and food services through Quest Food Management Services (with MyMealOrder pre-ordering and MealTime point-of-sale systems). Before/after-school care is delivered through a partnership with Northbrook Park District's Adventure Campus program for K-5 students at Wescott and Willowbrook Schools. The district's commercial channel mix is direct-to-consumer via the Parent Portal, with annual enrollment cycles and community outreach through school websites, newsletters, and local events. The district has earned three National Blue Ribbon Awards from the U.S. Department of Education (Wescott in 2013 and 2022, Maple in 2021) and all three schools received Commendable designations on the 2025 Illinois Report Cards.
