History



The first public high school in Paris opened in 1869. The high school shared a building with one of the city's grade schools until 1909, when the city built a dedicated high school building. Architect Arthur L. Pillsbury of Bloomington designed the building in the Classical Revival style; his design included a two-story portico at the main entrance, stone and terra cotta arched doorways, quoins at the corners, and a dentillated cornice. The school's sports teams saw statewide success in the late 1930s and early 1940s, and as a result, the city built a new gymnasium for the school which opened in 1944. Architects Berger and Kelley of Champaign designed the gymnasium in the Streamline Moderne style. In 1977, the gymnasium was dedicated to longtime boys basketball coach and Illinois Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame inductee, Ernie Eveland. Eveland led the Tigers to a state championship in both 1943 and 1947.
The high school celebrated its 100-year anniversary in 2009. On May 29, 2015, Paris Cooperative High School left its original building for a new location. The original building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 16, 2019.
