original catalog description: The yearbook is called The Polaris Memory Book; Charles D. Everett became the Principal of the first North High School in 1893 and held the position for more than 35 years. The first North High School was constructed at 100 West 4th Avenue between 1892-3. The large, three story stone Romanesque Revival structure was designed by Columbus architect, Frank L. Packard. The original building was replaced with a newer structure by 1924. The second, new North High School, opened the same year at 100 East Arcadia Avenue in south Clintonville. It was a part of the then Columbus Public School district, now Columbus City Schools. It was closed in June 1979 due to declining enrollment, but was re-opened in 2012 as Columbus International High School, housing grades 7-12. In December 1921, the Columbus Board of Education purchased a thirteen-acre tract of land on Arcadia Ave., which included the old Columbus Sewer Pipe Factory, for $39,000. Famed architect, Frank Packard designed the building, of Tudor Revival architecture, costing approximately $1,000,000. Construction began in 1923 and the building opened on September 2, 1924. It graduated its first class in January 1925. After North High School was closed, it was later turned into an adult education center, which ended after the 2005-2006 school year. Starting with the 2006-2007 school year it was reopened as a high school, this time as a temporary location for other high schools in the district while they were being renovated. From Au
