Thank you for visiting our site and learning more about Noble  Street Charter School’s mission and achievements.  Noble Street Charter School was established to provide educational choice for students throughout Chicago who want to build a foundation for college success.  All high school campuses of Noble Street Charter School replicate the powerful school culture and educational model that has made the school's flagship campus, Noble Street College Prep, a nationally-recognized success since opening in 1999.  The Noble Network of Charter Schools was established in April 2005 to operate Noble Street Charter School as the school began opening additional high school campuses.    

Thanks to support from the Chicago Public School district and generous donors, since 2006, four new Noble Street campuses have opened since 2006. In 2008-09, Noble Street Charter School is operating seven college prep high school campuses with three more scheduled to open in August 2009.  The Noble Network provides all financial, administrative, technological and facilities support for the school and also is the source for the school’s governance.

We invite you to join Noble’s effort to provide access to an excellent high school education to more students in Chicago. Please contact us if you have further questions or interest in becoming involved with our work.
