Happy #ThrowBackThursday #Milwaukie! Let's roll back 91 years to this week in February of 1925 when voters approved a merger of several smaller districts into a single Milwaukie Union High School District - District No. 5 to be exact. Check out the details in the comments. #MilwaukieTBT #HistoricMilwaukie #MilwaukieHighSchool #SchoolDistrict #MustangBorn #MustangBred North Clackamas Schools Photo Credit: the #MilwaukieHistoricalSociety - visit them on Facebook here: http://ow.ly/UioOe #OregonHeritage On February 28, 1925, Milwaukie voters approved the merger of several smaller school districts into the Milwaukie Union High School District (MUHSD) No. 5 – which at the time included 12 feeder schools that served the City and northern Clackamas County. Eventually, the MUHSD area would become part of today’s North Clackamas School District. Besides administrative considerations, the merger set in motion plans to construct a new high school building – which was completed in September 1926 and remains the core of present-day Milwaukie High School.
