Lane Tech High School
Albert G. Lane Technical College Preparatory High School (also known as Lane Tech), is a public, four-year, magnet high school located on the north side of Chicago. Lane is one of the oldest schools in the city and has an enrollment of over four thousand students.
Lane is a selective-enrollment-based school in which students must take a test and pass a certain benchmark in order to be offered admission.
Lane is one of nine selective enrollment schools in Chicago. It is a diverse school with many of its students coming from different ethnicities and economic backgrounds which helps enrich the school's student body. To celebrate the school's diversity, Lane hosts dozens of ethnic clubs which help students learn more about other cultures as well as prepare for the International Days festivities. Lane's annual yearbook is called the Arrowhead.
In 2011, Lane Tech opened up an Academic Center for 7th and 8th grade students. This program is accelerated. The Academic Center follows the selective enrollment policies.

—Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books,
But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.”
