Waubonsee Community College, a two-year public institution of higher learning, came into existence in July 1966 when the electorate of 12 school districts in most of Kane and portions of Kendall, DeKalb, LaSalle, and Will counties voted to establish Community College District 516. The area encompasses approximately 600 square miles and has an assessed valuation of $5.0 billion. District 516 serves 12 public school districts in Aurora, North Aurora, Batavia, Geneva, Kaneville, Maple Park, Elburn, Hinckley, Big Rock, Plano, Sandwich, Leland, Somonauk, Oswego, Yorkville, Bristol, and Sugar Grove. The Waubonsee Community College Plano Campus property is located one mile west of Eldamain Road on Route 34, on the north side of the road. The nine acre site is adjacent to the Lakewood Springs development. The new campus will be approximately 30,000 square feet and will offer a range of programs covering transfer programs for those pursuing bachelor's degrees, business and industry training programs, basic education and programs across a wide array of interest areas for those seeking personal enrichment and growth.
