History

The "Miles City High School" graduated its first student in 1893. In 1903, the school added the twelfth grade and changed its name to "Custer County High School", which had its first graduates in 1904. [2] The first high school was at the location of the current Washington Middle School, but then was a multi-story building located in the northeastern part of the town, next to the Ursuline Convent of the Sacred Heart. In 1922, a new building was constructed at the current location on South Center Avenue. Additions were made in the early-1960s. The new buildings contained additional classrooms and a gymnasium, and were connected to the older building with an enclosed ramp.

The name was changed to "Custer County District High School" as a result of combining the school boards for the elementary and the high school in the late 1960s. [3]
