Wheaton North High School
Wheaton North High School (WNHS), locally referred to as "North," is a public four-year high school. It is located at the corner of Geneva Road and Gary Avenue in the northwest corner of Wheaton, Illinois, a western suburb of Chicago, in the United States. It is one of two high schools that are part of Community Unit School District 200, the other being Wheaton Warrenville South High School.
==History==
As demand for a second high school increased in the 1950s and 1960s, Wheaton North High School split off from the original Wheaton Community High School. At this time, Wheaton Community changed its name to Wheaton Central, and in 1992, again changed its name to Wheaton Warrenville South and moved to its present location.
The building underwent significant renovations in the mid-1990s and on April 1, 2003, residents of Community Unit School District 200 approved, by a vote of 10,173 to 6,518,〔(High School Expansion )〕 a $72 million bond referendum to renovate and add onto both Wheaton North, and its counterpart, Wheaton Warrenville South. Construction began in the summer of 2003 with its first phase of the building of a field house. The second phase included renovations and additions to the building, which were completed in summer 2006.
On August 31, 2007, the school received a surprise visit from former U.S. President Bill Clinton. He made the visit to commend the school for its history of community service, and particularly singled out Kendall Ciesemier for her achievement in raising money and awareness for highly vulnerable children in Africa through her charity, Kids Caring 4 Kids, despite suffering her own medical problems. Kendall was rewarded with a trip to The Oprah Winfrey Show. The episode featuring Kendall aired September 4, 2007.〔(Fuller, James; ''Clinton, Oprah, Cash''; September 1, 2007; ''Daily Herald''; accessed June 23, 2009 )〕
