Need for integrated high school in Hyde Park Kenwood urged
Hyde Park Herald argues for a new integrated high school as current Hyde Park High overflows with 4255 students and only 6.9 percent are white. Data show white enrollment fell from 390 in 1963 to 264 in 1965 amid feeder schools with predominantly nonwhite students. Proponents insist a 6000 student school in Hyde Park Kenwood is essential to integration and education.
