Arlington Senior High School
Arlington Senior High School was a public high school in Saint Paul, Minnesota. It was located north of Downtown Saint Paul on Rice Street, west of Interstate 35E in the city's North End neighborhood. Arlington opened on September 3, 1996 as the newest high school for the Saint Paul Public School district. The school was the first high school to be built since Humboldt Senior High School in 1976.〔Burson, Pat (January 31, 1995), "Arlington Backed For School Name" ''Saint Paul Pioneer Press''〕 The school was closed after the 2010-2011 school year.
By its final year, the school enrolled only 875 students in grades 9-12, despite having operated near its capacity of 2,000 most of the years it was open.〔(SPPS Data Center )(October 1, 2009) "Class Size - Senior High"〕 The school consistently served a population that was around 95% students of color, 50-60% ELL, and 90-95% students on free/reduced price lunch.〔
Arlington was the only high school in Saint Paul with no attendance boundaries and enrolled students from throughout the city. Beginning in the 2009 school year, the school's main educational focus was "Bio-SMART," a program that emphasizes bioscience and the use of technology in health care. The school offered several Advanced Placement classes as well as several College in the Schools classes, in conjunction with the University of Minnesota.
==History==
As early as 1991 the school district began to plan for an additional high school. Initial projections were to add 2 new high schools to the then 6 operating by 2000.〔Walsh, James (September 21, 1993), "St. Paul high schools are running out of room" ''Star Tribune''〕 However a lack of funds allowed the construction of only one high school. The increasing number of children who attend public rather than non-public schools was attributed to part of the need. In 1974, 53% of children born in St. Paul later entered kindergarten in the city public schools. In 1990, 67% of the city's children attended public schools.〔Livingston, Nancy (May 21, 1991), "Growing Enrollment May Force St. Paul To Add Two High Schools", Saint Paul Pioneer Press〕 Overcrowding was so severe that in 1992 a citizen's group recommended moving 9th grade back into junior high buildings.〔Livingston, Nancy (July 15, 1992), "School Space Panel Favors 9th Grades In Junior Highs", Saint Paul Pioneer Press〕 The overcrowding was blamed on a surge in the birthrate in Saint Paul and a sudden influx of students from the suburbs, an unusual occurrence in an inner city school district. Plans for a "high tech" high school were put in place in as early as 1992.〔Livingston, Nancy (November 11, 1992) "School Face Crisis In St. Paul, Officials Warn//Board Members Weigh Plans To Build, Expand", ''Saint Paul Pioneer Press''〕
