The Settlement House also provided the school with strong community ties from the very start. Many of the school's board members came from NUSH's board. The Settlement House provides students with a place not only to receive help when needed, but also to give back to the community. Noble Street requires each student to do 20 hours of service learning per year, twice the public school requirement. Every other Friday, students present class work in imaginative performances at a student-run assembly called Town Hall.
Students also take fitness classes at a nearby athletic club.
Noble Street teachers are selected for their strong work ethic, their ability to interest students, and their strong values. They must be good role models. The teachers make learning fun. Parents are kept informed through biweekly progress reports and weekly newsletters. Send feedback to the CPS web team .
