North High School is a public high school in Akron, Ohio. It is 1 of 7 high schools in the Akron Public Schools district.
History: North High School was originally located at what is now Jennings Middle School. In 1931 the present North High School was built on Gorge Boulevard. The new building housed 10th-, 11th- and 12-grade students. The school then officially became North High School. Two wars and a depression delayed the completion of the building for 24 years. In 1955 a major addition including an auditorium, cafeteria and gymnasium was completed. Then in 1970, a vocational wing was added; and in September 1972, North High became a four-year high school once again.
Akron's first grammar school/high school building (at Mill, between Prospect and Summit streets) was used from 1847 to 1853. It was a dwelling house which was fixed up for a grammar school/high school. In 1853 Jennings School � a new two-story brick high school � was built on this site for $9,250.
Akron City Championships: Baseball - 1996, 1998.
Ohio High School Athletic Association State Championships: Boys Basketball - 1935, 1939; Boys Cross Country � 1941, 1943, 1946, 1947, 1958; Boys Track - 1956.
