Today Years past and the neighborhood changed. As the owners of the property, Seattle Parks and Recreation identified Lake City Community Center as a site located in an area prime for regular activities and programming that could serve residents of all ages. After an application and review process, the North Seattle Chamber of Commerce (NSCC) was selected as the new operator for the center. Moving Forward NSCC moved into the Center, Chamber office and all on January 2, 2013. Plans are being made for updating and remodeling, such as paint, color and cabinetry work. The City has approved funds for capital improvements, primarily for the building to meet current ADA requirements.
This CHSW location is a multi-service family support program located in the culturally diverse neighborhood of Lake City. The Center works with parents, children, and families by assisting them in securing needed services and support to face life's difficult challenges. Services include parenting education classes and workshops, play and learn groups for parents and their young children, support groups, home visiting programs, teen parent services, youth and school success activities, health and nutrition programs, and life skills education. Throughout the year, the Center offers fun events the whole family can enjoy including Fright Night, the Celebration of African Cultures, and International Children's Day.
Nathan Hale High School is a public high school in Seattle, Washington. Nathan Hale is part of Seattle Public Schools and is a member of the Coalition of Essential Schools.HistoryEarly yearsThe area northeast of Seattle, was part of the Shoreline School District until 1954. For a number of years that area had only one secondary school, Jane Addams. Steady population growth during the 1950s meant a new high school would soon be needed. In the planning stage, the school was given the temporary name of Northeast High School. This was later changed to Meadowbrook High School. The site for the new school, originally part of the Fisher Dairy, had most recently been the Meadowbrook Golf Course owned by the Tachell family. While the school was under construction, new guidelines and procedures for the naming of schools were adopted. As a result, the name Meadowbrook was replaced by Nathan Hale. Once built, the factory model school building and parking lot were positioned on either side of Thornton Creek, which runs west to east through the property. The site is directly across the street from Jane Addams. Nathan Hale High School was one of several schools for which the Seattle Parks Department paid a portion of the building construction in exchange for title to adjacent land to be used for recreational facilities. The first principal, Claude Turner, helped design the school. In its first year, Hale opened to sophomores and juniors only, with just 1,206 students. Two years later, it had a student body of 2,002. By the late 1960s, Hale’s enrollment had reached 2,400, and 24 portables were in use.
