History

Oxford Hills High School was founded in 1961 as part of a consolidation plan statewide for small schools. It combined Norway High School and Paris High School, then crosstown rivals. The school operated in the previous school buildings until 1966–67, when a new school was built nearby. In 1998, the school integrated local technical classes and the core curriculum, creating the current institution.[2]

Oxford Hills is also the home of the original Project Graduation. A graduation event started in 1980 after seven instances of alcohol and drug-related deaths after the 1979 graduation.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
