History

[edit]

East Dubuque High School has no known consolidations in the recent past. Surrounding communities may have possessed high schools at some time which were consolidated into the current EDHS. Potential reference/citation:[8][10] East Dubuque High School's original home was built in 1893 atop Montgomery hill overlooking the Mississippi River and the Iowa/Illinois border. The old building saw its last graduating class in 1978 when a new school was built near the Wisconsin border. The old school still stands today at 430 Sidney Street as Ahva Living of East Dubuque, housing some people who attended the school as students decades earlier.[11]
