History

The River Rouge School District was mentioned in the newspaper as early as 1904. In June of 1907, five students graduated from the high school, a number that expanded to 37 in 1925. A new high school, at 1411 Coolidge, was dedicated in 1922. A bond issue passed in 1993 to build the present high school.
