"Batavia has a very strong park district,” Mott says. “There are bike paths along the Fox River. It’s a great place for those who enjoy nature.” Small neighborhood parks dot the streets here, so parents and their kids are always within a short walk of a playground. Clark Island is home to a baseball field, paved walking paths and a covered picnic pavilion. Driving south on River Street will take locals to Lippold Park. This 30-acre natural area features a nature-based playground and wooded walkways that guide visitors through the area’s wetlands. The Fox River Trail passes through the park, where folks can access over 30 miles of trails ideal for hiking, biking and cross-country skiing.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
