1961-1962 Appleton School District merger

A 1959 Wisconsin state law required that all school districts have an attached high school in their district. In practice this meant that school districts without a high school either had to merge with districts that did, or build their own by a July 1962 deadline. Appleton School District ended up absorbing several schools and/or school districts to comply with the mandate.[24]

In 1961 the Red Star School District was attached to the Appleton School District,[24] after a vote to attach failed in 1959. At that time a new larger school was proposed by the school district, but building this never came to fruition, and the 1961 vote to attach succeeded.

  • Red Star School (approx. 1915?[25]–1965[26]). A two room school, with one dedicated room for a kindergarten and the other a one-room schoolhouse format.[25]

More schools were merged into the Appleton School District on April 25, 1962:[24]

  • Badger Elementary School (?–current)
  • Elmdale School (approximate location Шаблон:Coord, 1956–1962) A one room school north of Appleton, closed immediately after attachment to the Appleton School District. Used as district office space until 1964.
  • Speel School (approximate location Шаблон:Coord, 1928[27]–1962) One room school closed immediately after attachment to the Appleton School District.
  • Triangle School (approximate location Шаблон:Coord, 1930[28]–1962[29]) One room school closed immediately after attachment to the Appleton School district, with pupils sent to Twin Willows or Badger.[29]
