History
The original Mayville High School was built around 1850 as a one-room schoolhouse that housed all grades.[4] The current building was built in 1964.[5]
After a failed 2015 referendum,[5] a 2017 referendum to add a STEAM addition to the school passed; construction began in April 2018.[6]
In 2015, a possible plan for consolidation with Horicon High School in Horicon, Wisconsin was presented,[7] but the plan never made it past plan stage due to a lack of interest from Horicon.[5]
