History

[edit]

The first high school was built in 1894. The school moved to a converted building of the former Black Hills College, using that from 1910 to 1924 when the building was destroyed in a fire.[4]

1925 building

[edit]

The school's current building was built in 1925, with additions in 1953 and 1959.[4] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[3]

It is Tudor Revival in style, and is built of reddish-tan sandstone cut into rough ashlar, with bands using lighter tones of sandstone. The entrance has a compound Tudor arch.[4]
