The community used to be served by Cahokia School District 50. [4] There was a single school, Cahokia School. [5]

On April 1, 1950 the groundbreaking for the building of the Cahokia Commonfields High and Junior High was held. The district started operations in the 1951-1952 school year. [6]

The non-high school district 202, which included the elementary school districts 182 and 184, was dissolved in July 1956. The area from this district was divided between Cahokia and East St. Louis School District 189, and therefore Cahokia district took students of all grade levels from the former 202 district. The Cahokia district received around 33% of the students and around 33% of the District 182's assessed valuation, while the East St. Louis district received the three District 182 elementary schools and the remaining students and assessed valuation. [6]

In the 1958-1959 school year the district had over 4,000 students. The peak enrollment was during the start of the 1970-1971 district; 8,422 students. The student population declined, and the enrollment was 4,066 at the start of the 1991-1992 school year. [6]

In 2013 the district announced that due to budget issues it planned to eliminate athletic programs. [7] In June of that year the district board voted 6-0 to keep athletics and arts programs, and to close two schools and consolidate other academic programs. [8]
