Cahokia High School
Cahokia High School is a public high school in Cahokia Heights, Illinois, United States that is part of the Cahokia Unit School District 187.
History
In 2013 the district announced that due to budget issues it planned to eliminate athletic programs. This would have eliminated Cahokia High School's programs.[2] In June of that year the district board voted 6-0 to keep athletics and arts programs, but at the same time it voted to close two schools and consolidate other academic programs.[3] Therefore the high school retained its academic programs.[2]
