History

Cedar Springs had a high school as early as 1880.[7]

The high school was then located in the building on the southeast corner of East Muskegon Street and Northland Drive, on the present school campus.[8] It was built around 1927.[9]

The next building to house the high school was dedicated in August of 1959[10] and was located at 204 E. Muskegon Street.[11] The present high school opened in November 1997.[12]

Cedar Springs Middle School opened in fall 2005, and the former middle school, which had once been the high school,[13] became Red Hawk Elementary.[14]
