MORRILL

Morrill was founded in 1915, and the current building erected in 1925. "In September 1915, Mr. Ira Baker, then principal of Earl School and a pioneer of Marquette Manor, petitioned the Board of Education to build a portable school in the Manor. This site selected was the northwest corner of 61st and Maplewood. As enrollment grew, more portables were added. Finally in 1925, the portables were vacated, and a new building was opened at 60th and Rockwell and christened the Donald L. Morrill School." (Headley, K. J., Chicago Lawn /Marquette manor, 2001)... At Morrill, our vision is to create community of students, teachers, and parents who work together for academic excellence. We strive to create an inclusive, collaborative, and transformational educational environment that empowers every student as they grow academically and socially, developing into critical thinkers, lifelong learners, and respected leaders in a global community...
