Morgan Park High School
Morgan Park High School is a public 4–year high school and academic center located in the Morgan Park neighborhood on the far–south side of Chicago, Illinois, United States at the intersection of 111th street and Vincennes Avenue (11100 South and 1700 West). Morgan Park opened its doors on its current site in 1916. Morgan Park is apart of the Chicago Public Schools district.
==History==
The school began in 1916 with 283 students. By the 1970s, the student population had grown to over 3,300, though the enrollment has decreased since then. In 1934, over two thousand Morgan Park students went on strike, protesting overcrowded conditions and the presence of African-American students in school classes, leaving only one hundred and forty students in class. Parents had met with the school superintendent demanding that classes be kept segregated.〔("Chicago Pupils Strike.; Protesting Negro Attendance, 1,700 Quit Morgan Park High School." ), ''The New York Times'', October 9, 1934〕 Eventually the strike was settled and the white students returned to the integrated school. Segregation became an issue again in 1945 when students at the school circulated a petition to have a separate building built for black students. Frank Sinatra visited the area to support integration during the strike and encourage the students return to the school.〔("Interview of Holmes 'Daddy-O' Daylie" ), The HistoryMakers Video Oral History Archive, accessed July 15, 2009.〕
