Background
The current North Adams High School building was completed in August 1997, along with three other public high schools in Adams County: Peebles, West Union, and Manchester. All four schools use the same layout and appear almost identical from the air.
Controversy
The four regular public high schools in Adams County were built at the same time and all four featured a large granite tablet outside the school carved with the Ten Commandments. They were relocated after a lengthy four-year legal battle over the placement of the tablets on public property.
