School history


The original elementary building was constructed in 1894 at a cost of $35,000. This building was used for both elementary and high school classes. The elementary grades were on the first floor and the high school was located on the second floor.
The first high school graduating commencement exercises in Mechanicsburg were held June 3, 1880, with two people graduating. In 1920 the front part of the East Elementary building was completed for $75,000 and addition to the rear of that building was completed in 1939 for $38,000. These two buildings met the needs of Mechanicsburg's expanding enrollment until 1950. At this time an additional building that included the front high school building was completed at a cost of $230,000. Two more additions were made in 1956 and 1975, making the total construction cost of the present Mechanicsburg School Buildings around $1,282,000.
In 2003 voters approved a bond issue to construct a new K-12 building. The building was completed in 2007 at a cost of $24,542,000. This new complex includes athletic updates of baseball and softball fields and an all weather track.
