North School Park covers 12 acres at the intersection of Des Plaines River Road and Algonquin Road. A 0.8-mile paved loop circles the park’s central lawn and connects to the Des Plaines River Trail, allowing residents to reach downtown Des Plaines or the Forest Preserve District’s trail network without driving. Two lighted tennis courts, a playground with safety surfacing, and two reservable picnic shelters with grills sit along the western edge. The eastern section contains a fenced dog run and an open turf field used for youth soccer practices. Mature oak and maple trees shade the perimeter, while a rain garden near the main parking lot manages stormwater from adjacent streets. The park lies three blocks from the Des Plaines Public Library and within a ten-minute walk of both the Metra Union Pacific Northwest Line station and the Pace bus hub on Prairie Avenue, giving residents direct access to Chicago and surrounding suburbs.
