History

Originally, the main campus was built in 1995 by Hestrup & Associates as Wredling Middle School with a capacity of 1300; in 1999–2000 it was expanded and converted into St. Charles' second high school[3] at a cost of $41,600,000. The 345,000 square-foot facility now includes a fine-arts wing, with an 880-seat auditorium. Along with this, the athletics wing was expanded to accommodate a gym and mezzanine with 2,530 seats, a natatorium with 8 lanes and seating for 470 people, locker rooms, and weight and training rooms.

In spring 2001, a serious mold problem was discovered at St. Charles East, the district's other high school, and was determined to be the source of some student illnesses.[4] East students received an extra two weeks of spring break while school board officials decided on the best recourse. For the rest of the 2000–2001 school year, East and North students both used the North campus, on a split schedule, East students in the morning and North students in the afternoon. After repairs, which totaled nearly $30 million,[5] classes resumed their normal locations and schedules the following school year.
