Paxton prides itself in having one of the best school districts in downstate Illinois.
In addition, the schools are located 25 miles from Parkland Community College and the University of Illinois, 50 miles from Illinois State University and Danville Area Community College. In 1990, Paxton consolidated with nearby towns of Buckley and Loda to form the Paxton-Buckley-Loda (PBL) school district. In 1992, the Roberts area was annexed to the school district.
