City Honors School
City Honors School at Fosdick-Masten Park, known colloquially as City Honors, or CHS, is a college preparatory school in Buffalo, New York. City Honors is part of the Buffalo Public Schools system. The school was founded in 1975 by three faculty members from Bennett High School and Clinton Junior High School for academically gifted and talented high school students. In 1975, it was born as a school-within-a-school program and in one year it became a school of its own. It is located in the historic Fosdick-Masten Park High School, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
Today, the school thrives with curriculum including Advanced Placement & International Baccalaureate courses as well as Regents courses required by New York State Education Department. Currently 885 students from grades 5-12 attend the school. In 2014, the ''Washington Post'' ranked City Honors as the most challenging high school in the northeast.〔(High School Challenge ) Washington Post〕
== History ==
City Honors began as a series of enrichment topics at Bennett High School in 1973. Known as "Course Y", selected students took classes in the evening that dealt with enrichment courses and interdisciplinary topics. Increased student demand led to these workshops becoming a "school-within-a-school" at Bennett beginning in 1975, with a partnership being forged with nearby Canisius College.
In 1976, City Honors landed its own building, the former P.S. 17 located at the corner of Main and Delavan, which would allow the school to add grades 5 through 8 and strengthen its affiliation with Canisius. This made City Honors one of the first magnet elementary schools in the district. The school would eventually move to its current location at the Fosdick-Masten Park High School building in 1980. In 1991, City Honors adopted the International Baccalaureate program.〔LaChiusa, C. (2000, May). (A Brief History of City Honors High School )〕 From 2007-2009, the Masten/Fosdick location underwent a $40 million expansion and renovation project that included a new athletic complex. During that time, Grades 5-8 were temporarily housed at School 56, and Grades 9-12 at School 8.〔Simon, P. (2007, October 27). City Honors sets rise in security after attacks. ''The Buffalo News'', p.
