History
The current Edmonson County High School was completed in 1981. Previously, the High School had been located at the building of the current Edmonson County Fifth/Sixth Grade Center.
In the early 2000s, the decision was made to expand the high school facility and to construct a new Middle School next to the high school.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
“When the coherence of the parts of a stone, or even that composition of parts which renders it extended; when these familiar objects, I say, are so inexplicable, and contain circumstances so repugnant and contradictory; with what assurance can we decide concerning the origin of worlds, or trace their history from eternity to eternity?”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“A man will not need to study history to find out what is best for his own culture.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
