The School mascot is the Wildcats and colors are Maroon and White. The High School Building was built in a time frame around C. 1990, the "new gym" in C.1991, and the Woodbine intermediate building in 2000. Mold was found in a wing of the Rad Ware building in 2001, and the wing was demolished in 2003 and rebuilt to match the Intermediate building in 2004. Before 1989, the Rad Ware and Middle school buildings were the only ones, fitting all 13 grades (kindergarten and 1st through 12th) into only 2 buildings.
