History
Prior to 1969 the school was known as Menomonee Falls High School. The school colors were purple and white, the mascot was the Indians, the school newspaper was known as The Chieftain, and the yearbook was The Periscope. In 1969 when a second high school was built to serve the growing population, the original high school was renamed Menomonee Falls North and the new school was known as Menomonee Falls East. The school district returned to having one high school in the 1983-84 school year, with Menomonee Falls North High School becoming Menomonee Falls North Middle School.
In 2010, the freshman class was added to the high school, instead of being a part of the junior high. That same year, the village voted to update and expand the facilities. Updates included a new gym, and administration and science wings totaling 71,600 square feet.
