ROCKFORD’S PREMIERE PRIVATE SCHOOL
PRESCHOOL THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL
The #1 Ranked College-Preparatory School in the Region
We’re honored Keith School was again named the #1 private school in the Rockford area and received an A+ rating by Niche, an independent agency which combines rigorous analysis with authenticated reviews to highlight the best places to live and go to school.

In addition to a strong liberal arts curriculum, Keith emphasizes real-world experiences through signature programs, such as senior projects, leadership opportunities, and global awareness. Core values of trust, respect, and kindness permeate all school experiences.
