The far Northwest Side of Chicago will find a new CPS school in the fall of 2019 (projection). It's sorely needed as the current Taft High School is overcrowded and there are a number of other feeder schools where enrollment has ballooned in recent years. The new building, at a cost of $70 million, will hold 1,200 students.
This sounds like good news and it is to a large extent. Just one huge hiccup though...
Who will attend the new Dunning building? Will it be a sole high school for just the freshman class at Taft or will it take in Taft freshman and other students who aren't attending Taft? Perhaps the Dunning school won't have Taft students and it will be purely a high school for those living in the bustling community.
The answers to these questions have not been provided by CPS. Hopefully, sooner rather than later, CPS will let everyone know as time and patience is running short.
