General History

In 1965, Lost Creek High School and West Milford's Unidis High School were consolidated to create South Harrison High School. This new school was a grade 7-12 facility. In the summer of 1996, the Harrison County Board members officially separated South Harrison High School and South Harrison Middle School into two facilities. In 2006, the Harrison County Board voted and once again placed the high school and middle school under one administration. Again in 2010, the Harrison County Board members voted to once again split the High School and Middle School into two separate facilities. South Harrison High School is in Lost Creek, West Virginia. It has about 408 students among its 9th through 12th grades. SHHS's mascot is the Hawk. South Harrison belongs to the Harrison County and RESA VII school districts. [2] [3]
