History

The original Mayville High School was built around 1850 as a one-room schoolhouse that housed all grades. [3] The current building was built in 1964. [4] After a failed 2015 referendum, [4] a 2017 referendum to add a STEAM addition to the school passed; construction began in April 2018. [5] In 2015, a possible plan for consolidation with Horicon High School in Horicon, Wisconsin was presented, [6] but the plan never made it past plan stage due to a lack of interest from Horicon. [4]
