FUN FACT #10: A Legacy of Wildcats

Did you know?

The National Center for Education Statistics reports that the average age of a public school’s main instructional building is 49 years.

Northern Heights High School opened in 1957, meaning it has been serving Wildcat students for more than six decades.

Generations of Wildcats have walked these halls, learned in these classrooms, made lifelong friendships, celebrated victories, and created memories they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.

Now, we have the opportunity to think beyond the students in our classrooms today.

What kind of schools do we want to leave for the next generation of Wildcats?

The students who walk through our doors 10, 20, 30, or even 50 years from now deserve the same opportunity to learn, grow, and make memories in a place our community can be proud of.

We inherited these schools from generations before us. Now it's our turn to think about what we leave behind for the generations who come next.
