Manley High School
High School in Chicago, IL
This building was opened in April 1927, as the Hugh Manley Junior High School. In July 1933, the Manley Junior High School was reorganized into a Senior High School with an elementary school housed within the building. The two school levels functioned together for 10 years. In 1943, the elementary school moved to another location and the senior high school operated alone in the building until January 1944. At this time, the U. S. Navy took over the facility to evolve programs designed for and to help in the war effort. The high school students were transferred to neighboring schools, such as Marshall, Harrison, and Farragut. The Navy occupied the building through the end of World War II.

Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Embarc students headed to Feed My Starving Children to create instant food packets that get sent to children and families around the world. This week, some of our seniors attended the UNCF Empower Me Tour where they learned more about the HBCU experience and applied to colleges and scholarships on site!
