Waterford School District

Waterford School District is a school district headquartered in Waterford Township, Michigan.
==History==
Waterford Township lays claim to the first public school in Oakland County. That school was established in 1821 on the shores of Silver Lake with seven students. That number grew to 13 when its first permanent home, a log schoolhouse, was dedicated the next year. Ira Donelson, for whom Donelson Hills Elementary is named, was elected as the township's first Supervisor of Education in 1835, the year Waterford Township was organized.〔(Waterford Township Historical Timeline )〕 As the township grew, more schoolhouses were built, including Drayton Plains in 1865,〔(Drayton Plains One Room School )〕 Four Towns in 1866 and Waterford Center in 1869〔(Waterford Township Historical Timeline )〕
While one-room schoolhouses were the norm during the rural 19th century, multiroom school buildings became the norm as Waterford transitioned into a suburban community. The first was the Waterford School, built in 1910 and expanded in 1927〔(Photo of Waterford Village Elementary )〕 and later to be renamed Waterford Village Elementary; Four Towns and Waterford Center moved to new and larger school buildings within the next few decades, while the new Drayton Plains School opened in 1920.〔(Drayton Plains One Room Schoolhouse )〕 The hope was to consolidate these schools in a single district with the possible addition of a high school—Waterford's high school students then attended either Clarkston High School or Pontiac High School—but the Great Depression and then World War II postponed consolidation until 1944,〔(Waterford Township Historical Timeline )〕 when the present Waterford School District was formed. By then, the Williams Lake School, the fifth of the original schools in the district, was completed in 1943.
Attention was then turned to building a high school for Waterford Township, which doubled in population during the 1940s. For the first several years after Waterford Township High School was established in 1947,〔(Waterford Township High School at classicschools.com )〕 kindergarten through 6th grade attended Four Towns, Waterford Village, Williams Lake or Waterford Center, while the high school was based at Drayton Plains School until a permanent home, on the corner of M-59 and Crescent Lake Road, was completed in 1950.
At its peak in the 1970s, Waterford School District contained 27 elementary schools, three middle schools and three high schools—Waterford Township which closed in 1983, Kettering and Mott. Today, there are nine elementary schools, two middle schools and two high schools.
