Enterprise High School (EHS) is located in Enterprise, Utah, in the southwest part of the state, United States, and is the only 2A public high school [8] in Washington County School District. Enterprise High School's nickname and mascot is the Wolves; the student section is referred to as the Wolf Pack. You light the "E" on the Hill, and the Wolves Den gets a howlin'.

Contents

Enterprise was established in 1896. It was settled by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints who were called to settle the area by church leaders. Shortly thereafter, in 1898, a board of trustees was elected to oversee the needs of the 58 children in the community. The first classes were held in a one-room brick home. When the Young Men's Mutual Hall was completed one year later, the school moved into that building. As the community grew, more space was needed and classes were held at various locations and homes in the community. By 1917, the steadily increasing population had created a need for a more permanent school building. Construction began in 1921 on a new nine-room school building, which was completed in January 1922. Until 1922, only grades one through eight were held. With the construction of the new building, grades nine and ten were added. Students in eleventh and twelfth grades who wished to complete their education traveled north to Parowan. The latter two grades were added in 1927. For many years thereafter, grades one through 12 were held in the same building. In 1986, a new building was erected a few blocks southeast of the old school to house grades seven through 12. Most of the old school was demolished and a new elementary school built in its place.

There is an emblem shining on the hillside for me, it reflects the meaning of love and purity; Love for school and schoolmates, love for teachers too; Oh, may we e‘er bring honor, our dear old school to you; Our dear old EHS, we’ll always love you best; Where’er we roam, near or far from home; You’ll be the dearest school in all the West, rah, rah, rah!; Our colors gold and blue, will be waiting for me and for you; While we live and learn, we’ll be longing to return to our EHS!
