Indian Prairie School District 204 (sometimes abbreviated IPSD) serves students from the Illinois communities of Aurora, Bolingbrook, Plainfield and Naperville. Currently one preschool, twenty-one elementary schools, seven middle schools, three high schools, and one alternative high school are in the district. There are thirty-one District 204 schools in Naperville and Aurora and one in Bolingbrook. The third high school (Metea Valley High School) opened in Aurora in August 2009. This prompted Waubonsie Valley High School's Gold Campus to be converted into a seventh middle school known as Gregory Fischer Middle School.
