The Northern Lake County Conference (NLCC) is an organization of eight high schools in northern Illinois. These high schools are members of the Illinois High School Association.
The conference was established in 2016 with six former members of the North Suburban Conference (Antioch, Grant, Lakes, North Chicago, Round Lake, and Wauconda) and two former members of the Fox Valley Conference (Grayslake Central and Grayslake North). As the name implies, all members of the conference are located in Lake County.
