*Closure of Old Campus
The original school building and recreation center, built in 1971, designed by James Whitley, were officially vacated by Cleveland Public Schools in 2020. Since its closure, the school and its recreation center has been subject to vandalism. In 2023, Cleveland Public Schools sought to demolish the school and the recreation center and some ancillary outdoor sports facilities with the intention turn the land over to the City of Cleveland for redevelopment. The school district plans to leave the track and football field intact for use by CPS.Notable Alumni
