History

Marker commemorating the "1853 Site of First Public School House in Cedar Falls". Located at the corners of 5th Street and Main Street in downtown Cedar Falls.

Founding

In 1846, Mrs. Jackson Taylor opened the first school in her home at Waterloo Road and East 13th Streets. Early residents recalled seeing parents escort their children to school because Native Americans living in the area were sighted in the woods near the Taylor home. Today, a light red marker commemorates the site of the Taylor home.

In 1863, the old Central School was constructed to serve grades K-12 which occupied an entire city block. In the 1890s, the name was changed to Lincoln School.

First high school

In 1900, Cedar Falls High School was constructed as the first separate high school in Cedar Falls. The building was located where the Cedar Falls Recreation Center currently resides. An addition was added in 1914, and this building was used until 1953.

Current facility

The current building, located at 1015 Division Street, was opened in 1954. The school has been partially remodeled, including a new English wing that completed construction in 2005. The school recently added a plaza in front of the building in remembrance of the September 11 attacks.

Facilities

CFHS consists of three buildings: the main building, the annex which houses metal technology, electronics and auto mechanics classes, and an alternative program on Cedar Heights Drive.

Music

The choral music department offers three choirs for students during the school day: the auditioned Concert Choir, a soprano and alto choir known as Treble Clef Choir, and a tenor and bass choir known as Bass Clef Choir. A Vocal Jazz group is offered to students by audition.[2] The choirs perform three concerts during the school year as well as participate in various festivals and contests throughout the year. Students are also encouraged to participate in all-state, solo/ensemble, and a variety of community functions throughout the year.

The instrumental music department includes marching band, two concert bands, two jazz bands, and pep band. Band students regularly earn top honors in all large ensemble categories at festivals, and also participate in all of the state-sanctioned festivals.

The orchestral music department offers string orchestra throughout the year, and full orchestra (winds and percussion) is offered from mid-October through May. In addition, a chamber orchestra is formed for different concerts as needed. All of the orchestra groups have earned top marks at the IHSMA music festivals, and maintain a strong level of participation in all-state and solo/ensemble festival opportunities.

CFHS is a member of the Mississippi Valley Conference and competes at the Class 4A (largest) level in the state of Iowa. Major rivals include the Waterloo West Wahawks and the Waterloo East Trojans.

On Thursday, February 17, 2011, Cassy Harkelman became the first female wrestler to win an Iowa state tournament match in the history of Iowa high school wrestling. She earned a 20-13 pre-tournament record at 112 pounds before receiving an opening-round default at the state tournament.
