South Shore High School was a public high school in Chicago, Illinois. It was founded in 1940.[2] Beginning in 2001, the school campus, located at 7529-7627 South Constance Street, was divided into four smaller, more specialized high schools: the School of Entrepenuership, the School of the Arts, the School of Leadership, and the School of Technology.[3][4]
Students from the four schools share an athletic program, which continues to use the South Shore name.[5]
In 2011, a new school, South Shore International College Prep, was built at 1955 East 75th Street.[6]
