Westosha Central High School
Central High School opened in 1952. The school district was originally called Union High School Joint District #1 and the school was called Central High School.
By the late 1950s, the school became known as Salem Central High School.
In the mid-to-late 1980s, the district name was changed to Central High School District of Westosha. The school began to be called several different names: Salem Central, Central, Central Westosha, and Westosha Central.
Because of the confusion over so many different names, the Board of Education adopted a new district and school name. In 2022, the district name became Westosha Central High School District and the school itself became Westosha Central High School. Official branding was also adopted with the name change.
