History
Bay View High School in Milwaukee, WI, opened in September 1914 with 150 students and seven teachers. The school was then a one-building barracks without central heating. With German teacher Gustav Fritsche as principal, the barracks grew to a bungalow, and in 1922 classes were held in a new school, still in use today. The four-story brick building was a vast improvement over the wooden barracks. Later renovations included modernizing rooms and lighting; separating the east and west study halls into one-story units, later converted to classrooms; a library; and a small theater/conference center. In 1976, another addition to the building included a gym with 1200 seats for spectators.
The Oracle Newspaper was first issued in 1915. In 1917, the Oracle, then a booklet of 48 half-pages, began publication as a yearbook. With new facilities, athletics became an important extra-curricular activity, including football, track and field, basketball, swimming, and cross country. Early clubs included Girls’ Club (1914), Stage Crew (1924), Art Club (1932), and X Club (1938). A student government association was organized in 1947, and the Redcat mascot was adopted in the early 1950s. In 1985, the girls’ softball team won the WIAA state championship.
