The middle school occupies the second floor of the building and includes grades six through eight. The high school is on the first floor.

History

[edit]

By the mid-1960s, the Sherburne Central School District was dealing with overcrowding and considering expansion. A merger with the neighboring Earlville Central School District had been discussed, but could not move forward while Earlville was under a state order to consolidate with the Hamilton school district.[2]

In March 1967, voters approved the merger of the Sherburne and Earlville districts by more than a five-to-one margin. The new district took effect on 1 July 1967, and voters approved its first operating budget that June.[3][4]

The district's athletic teams were formerly known as the Marauders. In 2024, the Board of Education adopted Timberwolves as the new nickname.[5]
