History

The first one-room school house in Lake Linden was built in 1867. The building burned down and was rebuilt in 1881; in 1885 the first class graduated. The class was all females. In 1915, with the steady influx of students with the mining boom, a new building was built next to St. Joseph's Church on Calumet Street, and still stands today. The elementary school was built right behind the high school in 1998, and the two were connected with a skywalk. Major renovations to the gymnasium and auditorium took place in 2009.
