The city of Chicago on Thursday announced plans for construction of a $60-million selective-enrollment high school that would be named for President Obama.

The 1,200-student Barack Obama College Preparatory High School would be built in Stanton Park, blocks away from the former site of the notorious Cabrini-Green housing project, according to the Chicago Tribune.
