The Board finally folded and approved the move to Irving Park Road. It took relentless pressure to force these bureaucrats to do the right thing for our students. Keep watching them closely because we will be ready to fight again if they try to stall this progress.

Dear Chicago Board of Education,
This letter is in
support of The Noble Academy permanently relocating to the purposed site of 640W. Irving Park Rd.I believe that The Noble Academy, in its inaugural year, has provided an excellent opportunity for its students. Their clear focus on preparing students for college and beyond significantly helps our community. More families deserve the opportunity to choose a high quality option in my community.
The chance to move to the new location at Irving Park and Lakeshore drive provides a once in a life time opportunity for all The Noble Academy students to have an excellent facility and neighborhood. In its new location, The Noble Academy will have the opportunity to impact a diverse community of individuals that will send their children to this school; in such an environment, all students can thrive. Furthermore, all children should have access to a traditional high school experience with a versatile sports program as well as a performing arts program, which this new facility allows the school to provide.
I offer my sincerest support in recommending that Noble Academy move to this new proposed location and continue to provide excellent educational opportunities for all children in the city of Chicago.
Sincerely,
Updates

The Chicago Board of Education is still ignoring our demand for this new facility. We are almost at 500 signatures and we need to hit that mark right now to force them to pay attention. Send this petition to everyone you know who believes our students deserve a real school building.

The Chicago Board of Education is still hiding behind bureaucratic stalling while our kids wait for the facilities they deserve. I am done waiting for them to act on their own and will be pushing for a public confrontation at the next board meeting.

My son has made significant strides in his grades and sense of direction after attending only one year at The Noble Academy. He and I credit his success to their employing the Harkness teaching method in all classes, a practice unique to this Noble Network location.
My son attended Lincoln Park High School (our neighborhood school) where he failed. Noble Academy has totally turned him around. Students learn in many different environments and families need options that are not private schools.
My 3 daughters have graduated from Noble and advanced to college successfully. For this reason, I support this petition to allow other students to have the same opportunities.
As an Uptown homeowner and proud Noble alum, I can't wait for the new Noble Academy to open up here. The families of Uptown deserve the opportunity to have a Noble campus in their neighborhood.
As a teacher for five years and someone who knows the great passion and energy of the staff of the Noble Academy as well as the vast potential of its students I wholeheartedly support this opportunity to secure a permanent home for the Noble Academy.
I am a Noble Parent and supporter.
Relocating Noble Academy to 640 W. Irving Park is an opportunity for children that live in communities like Rogers Park to attend a better school. A charter school in this community is needed, for CPS high schools around the area are performing poorly.

The Noble Academy will not affect the neighborhood schools in the uptown area because our students come from over 40 different zip codes and do not live with in the attendance boundaries of the schools
