Prospect Heights school systems are well known for their commitment to excellence and genuine sense of care. While most of Prospect Heights is served by Elementary School District #23, some is served by Elementary School Districts #21 and #26. The Village of Wheeling's Discovery Center provides a separate building for science classes to District #21 children. There are two private schools close to Prospect Heights.

Prospect Heights is in High School District #214 and students attend Wheeling High School or John Hersey High School. Both schools have been awarded the Excellence in Education award sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education.
