Colby High School is a public secondary school in Colby, Kansas, United States. It is located at 1890 S. Franklin Avenue, and operated by Colby USD 315 school district. It enrolls approximately 300 students every year. The current principal is Ryan Muhlig.[2]
Colby High School was founded in 1890. As the community grew, so did the school, and eventually surrounding smaller schools in Levant, Kansas, and Gem, Kansas, were closed so students could attend classes at Colby. Until 1995, Colby High School was located on Third Street, but the need for a larger building was recognized, and thus emerged the building that accommodates the students and teachers now.
