Background

The current North Adams High School building was completed in August 1997, along with three other public high schools in Adams County: Peebles, West Union, and Manchester. All four schools use the same layout and appear almost identical from the air. [3]

Controversy

The four regular public high schools in Adams County were built at the same time and all four featured a large granite tablet outside the school carved with the Ten Commandments. They were relocated after a lengthy four-year legal battle over the placement of the tablets on public property. [4]

Sports

The school offers basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, and track & field; baseball only to boys; and softball and volleyball only to girls. [5] [6] As of 2022, archery began being offered, [7] quickly becoming one of the school's biggest clubs.

Records

At the OHSAA Division 3 State Championships 2025, which took place on June 6 and 7 at the Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium, Beau Hesler, a junior at the time, broke a personal and school record, running a 1:51.78 for the 800 Meter Run Finals and winning first place. [8]
