The area, not just the school

West Lawn is one of Chicago's classic southwest side neighborhoods, a friendly, family first community of tidy brick bungalows, two-flats, and well-kept lawns where neighbors still know each other by name. Ford City Mall anchors shopping and dining, the Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture reflects the area's deep immigrant roots, and Marquette Park keeps everyday errands and green space close to home. It is a genuinely diverse, largely Latino and Eastern European community with a strong sense of place.

Getting downtown is easy from here. Midway Airport is just to the north, the CTA Orange Line and multiple bus routes connect you to the Loop, and I-55 and Cicero Avenue put the rest of the city within reach. Housing stays refreshingly attainable compared with much of Chicago, which makes West Lawn a smart pick for first time buyers and growing families who want space, community, and a real neighborhood feel.

The school

About Hubbard High School

Hubbard High School opened for the 1928 to 1929 school year and is named for Gurdon Saltonstall Hubbard, the early fur trader and insurance underwriter who helped shape Chicago's growth in the 19th century. The comprehensive public high school sits in the West Lawn neighborhood on Chicago's southwest side and has long served this close-knit, largely working-class community. In 1998 Hubbard implemented the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, and in the 2007 to 2008 school year it was one of just 16 schools nationwide chosen by the College Board for the Gates Foundation funded EXCELerator program. Today Hubbard remains a Chicago Public Schools district high school in good standing, competing in the Chicago Public League as the Greyhounds.

Hubbard has offered the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme since 1998 and adds Advanced Placement courses in six subjects including Biology, Calculus, English Language, Psychology, Spanish Language, and United States History, along with a JROTC program. The school reports a five-year graduation rate of about 83% and carries a CPS accountability status of Good Standing.

Hubbard competes in the Chicago Public League as the Greyhounds. The 1973 boys baseball team went 28-3 under coach Tom Skubich and won the Illinois state championship, the school's signature athletic achievement.
