Waterville CSD Turns 150 Years Old

Over the next week’s the Times will summarize some of the highlights of each of the last 150 years since Waterville Central School District was formally centralized.


Waterville’s educational roots stretch further back than 1874 when students from area towns and hamlets all came together for the first time in one building.


The District will have a formal recognition of the centralization of WCS

Thursday, May 16 at 9:30 a.m. in Brothertown Stadium.


All alumni and community members are invited.


The Times gives grateful thanks to the Waterville Historical Society for opening up its collection of Academic Unions for the last 150 years.


1935: Thirty-eight students graduated. An annex was added to the school; the district had 767 pupils.


1936: Thirty-three students graduated.

The freshman class had 71 students.

The National Honor Society began a chapter at WCS.


1937: Fifty-five students graduated.

The Academic Union was dedicated to ‘three classmates who have dropped by the wayside.’’
