Pembine High School
Pembine High School is a high school in the Town of Pembine, Wisconsin. The school is officially named Beecher-Dunbar-Pembine High School after the district to which it belongs. Opened in 1903, the high school originally served the Pembine District, but later added other geographic areas. The school serves K-12 students, with a student population of 240.

History

The first high school in Pembine was a four-room schoolhouse built in 1903 that served different grades. In 1957 additions of a cafeteria, gym, and shop enlarged and modernized the school. Further additions came in 1973 with four larger classrooms and a library. In 1984, the school added 4 more classrooms and restrooms. In 1990, when the school faced overcrowding problems, it considered consolidating with Niagara High School. The decision to consolidate was turned down by a town vote. In 1996 to answer the overcrowding problem the town passed a $2 million addition to Pembine High School that nearly doubled the square footage.
