The Daily Herald reports that A Nightmare on Elm Street will be shooting at two schools in Chicago.
"New Line Cinema wants to use Elk Grove High School and Hersey High School in Arlington Heights for an upcoming remake of the classic horror movie 'A Nightmare on Elm Street,' Elk Grove High Principal Nancy Holman confirmed Sunday. The plans were announced to students during an assembly Friday."
The schools will be used for a few exterior shots and a scene involving students swimming in the school's swimming pool. Students of both schools have been asked to audition as extras.
Sorry for the crappy picture it is all I could find for Hersey High School. You can see Elk Grove High School here.
A Nightmare on Elm Street begins shooting on May 5th with a planned April 16, 2010 release date.

I graduated from Hersey H.S. in June of 2004. It's cool to have seen part of my school in this remake.
omfg, i just passed HERSEY today going to my uncles funeral , and i was wondering if they filmed their !
i am in the movie and the director picked a certain 12 kids to be in the pool scene. for a part and i tried to get my facts straight and understand what i am really doing but i do know its only good when they need 12 kids for the part. i am so happy to be in this movie. i am the most biggest country kid and i thought something like this would never happen to me i am soooo happy.
Can you provide more details to when they are going to be filming? I read its supposed to start May 5th but how long will that go until? Also, when will they be at Hersey and when will they at Elk Grove? Any idea when the outside scene is also? I live in Arlington Heights and I'd like to know because if I can, I want to see some of the filming outside. Thanks!
No sorry I do not know the actual shooting schedule if I do find out I will publish it here asap.
