Prairie Hill CCSD #133 is located in South Beloit, Illinois and its enrollment encompasses portions of Roscoe and South Beloit. Prairie Hill Elementary School received the National Blue Ribbon Award in 2014, the first public school in Winnebago County to earn such a distinction. Prairie Hill, with a mission statement of “Students First, Always” is a recognized Professional Learning Community (PLC) that has become an area leader in its success with Standards-Referenced Grading. The district employs more than 100 staff members, with a teaching workforce of just over 50.

In 1949, a vote passed to consolidate three schools (Nichols, White and Hayward). In 1952, the Prairie Hill School District #133 building was completed and opened on a site that is now approximately located at the overpass on Prairie Hill Road and I-90. 

The Illinois State Highway Department in 1958 purchased and demolished the original Prairie Hill School. 

In 1959, the present Prairie Hill School was opened. Five additional acres of land were purchased in 1967 and 1989, making the new campus 15.1 acres. Additions to the Prairie Hill building were completed in 1968, 1975, 1996, and 2001.
