Sure, I understand your desire to attend a racially diverse high school as it can provide a rich and vibrant learning environment. Here are some high schools in Chicago known for their diversity:

1. Whitney M. Young Magnet High School: With a student body of just over 2,000, this Magnet School has a robust representation of Hispanic, African-American, Asian, and White students. It is also renowned for academic excellence and a strong offering of extracurricular activities.

2. Walter Payton College Preparatory High School: Walter Payton Prep enrolls a diverse group of students from all over Chicago. It boasts a balanced composition of students from various ethnic backgrounds, contributing to the vibrant multicultural environment.

3. Jones College Prep High School: Jones is another diverse school located in Chicago. It has a well-distributed student body across various ethnicities, along with a strong emphasis on college preparatory academics.

4. Lane Tech College Prep High School: With one of the largest student bodies in Chicago, Lane Tech provides a vast pool of diversity. Students from many different backgrounds attend this school, making it an excellent place for exposure to many cultures.

Each of these schools has a rich tapestry of cultures and backgrounds represented which can provide an enlightening and enriching high school experience. However, I would encourage you to consider factors above and beyond diversity as well, such as academic programs, extracurricular opportunities, school culture and other factors important to you. Always remember to visit the schools if you can, to truly get a feel for the environment!
