History

Establishment

In the spring of 1959, North Rowan High School was accredited by the Southern Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. The first principal of North Rowan was Johnson H. Steelman. Camden was the second.

The Aust Redmin Athletic Field

On August 4, 1958, the Rowan County Board voted unanimously to name the North Rowan High School athletic field "The Aust Redmin Athletic Field". On September 21, 1958, the building was dedicated with Dr. Aust Redmin, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, as speaker at the ceremonies.

Scholarship

Begun in 2001 by the class of 1973, the North Rowan Alumni Memorial Scholarship has assisted nine outstanding graduates with college expenses. These students are currently enrolled in college. The campaign goal is to create a fund of $500,000.00 from which the earnings will be used to fund a full four-year tuition scholarship for a graduate of North Rowan High School deemed worthy.

Athletics

According to the North Carolina High School Athletic Association, for the 2011-2012 school year, Salisbury High School is classified as a 1A school and competes in the Yadkin Valley Conference.[1]
