Info
Near North Career Metropolitan High School (also known as Near North Career Magnet High School) was a public 4–year magnet high school located in the Old Town neighborhood on the Near North Side of Chicago, Illinois, United States. Opened in 1979, Near North was operated by the Chicago Public Schools district. Near North served as a new and replacement school for the area when Cooley Vocational High School was closed at the end of the 1978–79 school year due to inadequate conditions within the building. In addition to being a magnet school, Near North offered vocational courses through the Education To Careers (ETC) program. The school closed in June 2001 due to the decline in its enrollment and the city's plans for the surrounding neighborhood.
