Edmond North history

Edmond North High School (previously Edmond North Mid-High serving ninth & tenth grades only) became a four-year high school on May 2, 1993 by adding, respectively, eleventh and then twelfth grades. The rapid growth of the community in the early and mid-1990s prompted the decision to increase the number of high schools in the district. This allowed for expansion of the school's main building as well as the size and variety of available classes.

The initial graduating class was formed in 1994 and would graduate as the 1st class in May 1995. 1994 was the first year they hosted summer school. Edmond Memorial had previously been host, and with a second high school available, a rotation began between the two high schools and would later include Edmond Santa Fe High School which formed in 1993.

Community expansion continued through the '90s and into the 2000s, prompting Edmond North to further expand the main building. Additional portable classrooms were added, more parking became available, and a track, full size football field and tennis courts were also added.
