History

verification. (April 2011) |
Novi High School was established in 1966 and graduated its first class in 1969. Prior to 1966, high school students from the Novi district attended Northville schools. The high school started out in a rural community that saw a tremendous amount of growth between the late 1960s to the early 2000s, and subsequently, the growth of the school. The large influx of students from the 1980s to today led to several renovations and expansions of the high school.[ citation needed]
The first high school was located in the current Novi Meadows school at Taft and 11 Mile Roads which was built in 1964. This building was known as Novi Junior High School from 1964 until 1968 and opened to students in the fall of 1966. Explosive growth began in Novi during the 1970s and the district quickly outgrew the old high school, forcing the district to build the current high school which opened in the Fall of 1977. The current school was built on a portion of the Fuerst family farm.[ citation needed]
The first renovation of the high school occurred from 1993 to 1996, boosting the building capacity by 40% and adding a telecommunications system, science labs, and a fine arts complex.[ citation needed]
In 2001 a $75.6-million bond proposal passed for a second high school. A $37-million expansion and renovation that followed included an expansion of the cafeteria; a renovation of the auditorium with a new sound system, new seating, and new carpeting; and a new fine arts wing with a choir room, a black box theater, and a dance studio.
