About

Boonville High School, Warrick County's oldest high school, was built in 1958 and is located on a 34-acre site that borders North First Street in the city of Boonville. A series of additions and remodeling were completed in 1976, 1983, 2000, and 2023. The band room, auditorium, kitchen and cafeteria were renovated in 1983. New additions at that time included an indoor swimming pool with spectator seating, adjacent locker and dressing rooms, faculty office space and a gymnasium. The 2000 construction project renovated all existing classrooms and added a new technology education wing, art classrooms, an agricultural science facility and a greenhouse. Technology improvements were also part of the 2000 project. The entire building was networked, computers were added to all classrooms and software was purchased to expand the curriculum and increase student services. Internet access to all classrooms was also completed at this time.
