History
In 1913, the first Leyden was originally a two-year high school which is now present day Hester Junior High School in Franklin Park. It became a four-year high school in 1924 where it was known as Cook County District 212. With increase in population, the East Leyden building was expanded and finished by 1955. West Leyden was built and finished by 1959. In 1965, West Leyden housed Triton Junior College until its buildings were constructed in River Grove by 1969. By 2009, East Leyden purchased 12 acres for parking lot and field expansion.[3]
Organization and Staff
It is governed by a 9-member school board. The president of the board is Mr. Gregory T. Ignoffo. Dr. Nick Polyak serves as the current superintendent over the district since 2013.[4]
Athletics
Each sport is offered to all students at both schools, but some are practiced at only one location.
