THE high school was founded in 1875 and continues to thrive, producing artists, athletes, scholars, builders, do-ers, healers, and more.

Celebrate with us throughout 2025 as we honor our school, it's staff, and its students with exhibits at local libraries and Chaucer's, displays on the school campus, and a birthday party and All Dons Reunion in the Fall.
