Bremen High School District 228 was founded in 1953 to serve the area which had previously been assigned to Thornton Township public high schools. The first District 228 school to open was Bremen High School in Midlothian, Illinois, 1953.

Further population increases in the 1950s and 1960s resulted in the opening of three additional schools:

• Tinley Park High School in Tinley Park, Illinois, 1961
• Hillcrest High School in Country Club Hills, Illinois, 1967 (a portmanteau of two communities which it represents: Country Club Hills and Hazel Crest)
• Oak Forest High School in Oak Forest, Illinois, 1970
