History

Construction on the school began in March 1971 after the February 1970 decision by the Chicago Board of Education to construct three new schools on the city's west side. The school was to accommodate 1,500 students along with a recreational space conjoined with the Chicago Park District.[3] The school opened as Austin Middle School in 1972.[4] In 1974, the school was re–named Michele Clark Magnet High School in honor of the Chicago television journalist Michele Clark who's noted as one of the first African-American woman to serve as a news reporter. For the 2002–2003 school year, Clark was converted into a high school.[5]
