  1. William Howard Taft High School (New York City)

    For other schools of the same name Taft High School disambiguation William Howard Taft High School was a high school in Southwest section of the Bronx, New York City . The school was operated by the New York City Department of Education . Taft H.S. is located on Sheridan Avenue and 172nd Street in the Bronx. In the early 1970s, Taft H.S. earned a reputation as a failing school with many of the problems of other high schools in poor, marginalized neighborhoods in New York City. Founded in the 1940s, Taft originally served the largely homogeneous population of the surrounding area. In the post war years of the forties, fifties and sixties, famous graduates included director Stanley Kubrick , producer Jerry Weintraub and singers Eydie Gorm , Chuck Negron , and Luther Vandross . Demographic changes in the sixties, the exodus of the homogeneous population, and the advent of specialized magnet schools brought about shifts in enrollment at Taft HS. During the Abraham Beame 1974 77 and Edward Koch 1978 89 Administrations, there was no priority given to the needs of the shifting demographics in the school community. City wide, crime rates were high and unfavorable publicity further accelerated the decline of the school. Entering the 1990s, as a non selective high school, it was unable to compete with the newer schools housing magnet programs that attracted prime students from throughout the borough. Crime intimidated vibrant young professionals from teaching at the high school. The danger was highlighted in May 1997, when Jonathan Levin, an English teacher at the school and the son ....
