Adlai E. Stevenson High School, located at 1980 Lafayette Avenue in the Bronx, New York, was a public high school that served students from the surrounding area. Named after the American statesman Adlai E. Stevenson II, the school was part of the New York City Department of Education. Known for its diverse student body, Stevenson High School offered a range of academic and extracurricular programs designed to cater to the varied interests and needs of its students. Over the years, it became an important educational institution in the Bronx, contributing to the community through both its academic offerings and its engagement with local families. However, due to various challenges, including academic performance issues, Stevenson High School was eventually phased out and replaced by multiple smaller specialty schools and academies, which now operate within the same campus, providing focused education in particular fields and contributing to the revitalization of education in that part of the Bronx.
