History
The current Oley Valley High School was built in 1961 adjacent to what is now the Oley Valley School District Administration building, which was formerly the Oley Valley K-5 building until 1993.
The high school was renovated in 1981 to have a joint middle school. In 2002, a new middle school was built and the left-over wing incorporated into the high school, primarily as the social studies wing.
The school district superintendent was Jeffrey Zackon until he died while abroad during the German class trip on April 20, 2011 while in the Swiss alps. The Oley Valley School District's new superintendent is Tracy Shank.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
“Humankind has understood history as a series of battles because, to this day, it regards conflict as the central facet of life.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“... all big changes in human history have been arrived at slowly and through many compromises.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
