These are Ledgewood School (grades K-3), Stone Creek School (grades K-3), Kinnikinnick School (grades 4-5), and Roscoe Middle School (grades 6-8). There is no public high school in the village, so high school students attending a public school must travel outside Roscoe, to Hononegah High School, located in the neighboring town of Rockton, Illinois.

Roscoe Middle School is the largest feeder school for Hononegah High School. The Prairie Hill C.C.S.D. #133 also serves parts of Roscoe's NE area. The Prairie Hill District agreed to build a new school and annex the land into the Village of Roscoe (November 2007) Parts of the southern areas are served by Harlem School District 12 .
