1908 High School

Stoughton’s next High School was opened and dedicated on February 28th, 1908.  (The cost of the new school was $61,000.)  The existence of a large, new physical facility enabled Stoughton High School to revise its course of study to take advantage of a number of new Wisconsin laws providing state aid to schools inaugurating new programs.

Designed in the Neoclassical/Beaux Arts style by Wisconsin architecht Edgar A. Stubenrauch.

In the early 1950’s the Stoughton High School building was once again overcrowded and an addition was added to the west end of the school in 1955, as seen in the 1961 Yahara yearbook photo below.
