Cudahy High School

The first high school in Cudahy was built in 1915 at 4416 South Packard Avenue. When a new high school was built on South Lake Drive in the early 1920's, the previous high school became Lincoln Elementary School.

A pool and gymnasium wing were added to the Cudahy High School in 1929, making Cudahy the first suburban school in Milwaukee to have a pool. According to my step-dad, at least when he attended school there in the 50s, swimming was only offered to boys and they had to swim naked. Which explains a lot.

CHS today

Due to population growth, in 1964 a larger high school was built, directly across the street from the previous high school. The former CHS became Cudahy Junior High East. East was razed in 1992, and the Cudahy Sports Complex was built in its place. The current high school is located between Sheridan Park and Warnimont Golf Course, on the bluffs overlooking Lake Michigan.
