History

Education in the community of Isabella centered primarily around the Isabella Methodist Church for much of its early history. [2] By 1927 however, the school had since grown beyond the church and had become a distinct senior high school. [2] The school had included a vocational building for agricultural studies since 1923, the first agricultural department to be established within the county. [2]

In 1988, the school suffered a major fire which destroyed most of the original building. By October 1989 a new set of buildings had been erected which the school currently occupies. [2]
