History

The first Rhinelander High School was built in 1889. It was named Rhinelander Union High School (RUHS) and the building was commonly known as Old Central. It stood on what is now Saroca Park. When the school began it had just two teachers and fewer than 80 students. By 1912, attendance had grown to over 215 students.

The school was demolished to accommodate increased enrollment. The new high school, known as Rhinelander High School today, had its first graduation on June 4, 1959, with a class of over 200 seniors.[3]

On 9 May 2012, 50 students participated in a walk out, protesting the layoffs of educators because of budget cuts.[4] Some students participated in a school board meeting on May 21, 2012.[5]

In 2013, a recently hired teacher was arrested for possessing 66 marijuana plants and stealing laptops and lab equipment, with the aid of another new teacher and a secretary. All were later dismissed from employment.[6]
