A charter school network looking to move its high school from Avondale to Albany Park has ignited controversy between the charter network and surrounding schools in Albany Park.
ASPIRA Early College High School has proposed a move beginning in the fall from 3986 W. Barry Ave. to 3729 W. Leland Ave., blocks from Theodore Roosevelt High School, 3436 W. Wilson Ave. This move would place the charter school in the same building as its feeder school, ASPIRA Haugan Middle School.
ASPIRA CEO Fernando E. Grillo said students initiated the move two years ago, telling administrators the facility could no longer accommodate their needs. ASPIRA applied to relocate the high school in February and is waiting on a decision from the Chicago Public Schools Board.
U.S. News & World Report on Tuesday released its annual Best U.S. High Schools list, ranking Hudson High School 10th in Ohio and 410th in the nation.
