History

De Pere High School, 2004

The first high school in De Pere was built in 1930 at 650 South Michigan Street. In 1935, its gymnasium was one of the largest in the state.[citation needed] In 1978, the current high school was built at 1700 Chicago Street. It underwent major expansion in 2001, with the addition of a gymnasium and several classrooms. In January, 2007, more classrooms were added. De Pere High School was recently made a Green School by the school's environmental club.

FIRST Robotics

De Pere High school is home to the only FIRST robotics team in Green Bay. Team 1716 has been in existence since 2006 and since has offered a great opportunity for students interest in STEM! [1]

Athletics

De Pere High School is a member of the Fox River Classic Conference. In 2005, the girls' basketball team won the Division 1 state championship. It was the girls' basketball program's first trip to the state tournament since winning it in 1983. De Pere High School has also won state championships in boys' basketball (1934), boys' soccer (1993), football (1992), track and field,[when?], Bowling (2004) and gymnastics (19861990). De Pere High School also has one of the best high school baseball programs in the state of Wisconsin. Not only their high school team but also their American Legion team, which combines with the west side of De Pere, are feared around the state of Wisconsin.

Mascot controversy

De Pere High School's mascot is the Redbird. In 2005, the school received a cease-and-desist order on the grounds that its mascot was copyrighted material of Illinois State University. The school eventually redesigned the logo so as to not violate the copyright.[2]

Trivia

Wikipedia.org was banned on March 2, 2007 at De Pere High School, and the whole East De Pere School District because it was not a reliable source of information for students.
