What South Beloit Community Unit School District 320 does

South Beloit Community Unit School District 320 (also known as County of Winnebago School District 320 or South Beloit CUSD #320) is a public K-12 school district operating under the Illinois School Code in South Beloit, Illinois, along the Illinois-Wisconsin border in Winnebago County. The district serves approximately 900-1,000 students across grades Pre-K through 12, distributed across five schools: Clark Elementary (Pre-K-1), Riverview Elementary (2-4), Blackhawk Elementary (5-6), South Beloit Junior High (7-8), and South Beloit High School (9-12). It is governed by an elected Board of Education with Devon Pilz serving as President and is led by Superintendent Nik Butenhoff.

The district's service portfolio extends beyond traditional K-12 instruction to include special education, Title I academic support, speech-language pathology, school psychology, social work, food service, transportation (via Durham Student Services with BusZone tracking), and a school-based health center operated in partnership with Crusader Community Health and Rosecrance Health Network that provides on-site medical, behavioral, and dental services to students, staff, and their immediate families. Educational technology infrastructure includes Google Workspace for Education, a 1:1 Chromebook program, TeacherEase as the student information system and parent portal, and standardized assessment platforms (STAR, IAR, ISA, DLM-AA). Stateline Boys and Girls Club and Stateline Literacy Council provide community-based after-school and adult ESL programming respectively.

As a government state entity, the district is funded primarily through local property taxes, Illinois State Board of Education allocations via the Evidence-Based Funding (EBF) formula, federal Title I/II/IV grants, and modest Medicaid FFS/Outreach revenue from the health center. No tuition is charged to district residents; optional fee-based services include food service and transportation. Revenue is not publicly disclosed on the district website, and the entity is not subject to commercial M&A, funding rounds, or private investment activity—it operates as a public institution under state oversight.
