Excerpt from Syllabus of the Course of Study The first High School was established in Chicago in October, 1856, and was known as the Central High School. It had a four years' course. Mr. Charles I. Dupee was Principal from 1856 to 1860, and George Howland from 1860 to 1881, when he became the Superintendent of the Public Schools of Chicago. In 1875, three other High Schools were established, each with a two years' course, viz.: The West Division, corner Congress Street and Ogden Avenue; the South Division, corner Wabash Avenue and Twenty-sixth Street, and the North Division, corner Wells and Wendell Streets. In 1881, the Central was discontinued, the two years' course in each of the other three abandoned, and a four years' course was adopted for the three High Schools, one in each division of the city. In May, 1889, the North-West Division was established, and occupied rooms in the Columbus School until September, 1892, when the new building, corner Potomac Avenue and Davis Street, was opened. The English High and Manual Training School, near the corner of Halsted and Monroe Streets, was established by action of the Board of Education August 20, 1890.
