North Central High School is a public high school in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. It is part of the Metropolitan School District of Washington Township. The school year enrollment was 3,400 in grades 9–12. The principal is Evans Brannigan. North Central is an International Baccalaureate (IB) school. ==History== North Central was established in 1956 in response to Washington Township's rapidly growing population and the desire of residents to have a local high school. Prior to this, students from the township attended Broad Ripple and Shortridge High Schools in Indianapolis. (At this time, most of the township was outside the city limits.) In 1963 the current facility was opened, and the original building was repurposed to Northview Middle School. In 1993 and 1994, the school suffered from two major fires set by arsonists. The second fire was especially severe, destroying several areas of the building, including the newly renovated gymnasium. All of the affected areas were rebuilt, but the arsonists were never caught.〔Gulde, W.F. ''Hopes, Dreams, and Books: The Story of North Central High School''〕 In 2004, William F. Gulde, the North Central High School Social Studies chair at the time, published a detailed history of the school titled ''Hopes, Dreams, and Books: The Story of North Central High School, 1956–2004''. ''The Fault in Our Stars'' by John Green is set in Indianapolis, where the character of Augustus Waters was a basketball star at North Central before getting cancer. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「North Central High School (Indianapolis)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
