Kaukauna High School is a public high school in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, the only high school in the Kaukauna Area School District. As of the 2016–2017 school year, the school had 1,181 students in grades 9 through 12.[2]
The first Kaukauna High School, built in the late 19th century, was expanded twice and replaced with a new building on a different site in 1999; the old building is now River View Middle School. The school has a sports complex with an indoor workout facility, a stadium with turf field, and a concession stand built by the Kaukauna Soccer program.
Kaukauna High participates in the Fox Valley Association Conference with ten other Fox Valley schools. The school's mascot is the Galloping Ghost, named after a football game in the early days of the school. According to the legend, in 1940 a student who had cloaked him and his horse ran onto the football field to deliver a football to the referee.[3] [4]
