Huntington North High School

Huntington North opened in 1969; the school opened over a month late into the school year due to construction projects. With minimal repairs made to the building over 50 years, a 2019 test that resulted in high carbon dioxide levels led some parents to disenroll their children from the school. A November 2019 referendum to build a new academic wing, performing arts wing and technical education wing failed. ==Demographics==

For the 2018–19 school year, the demographic breakdown of the 1,459 students was: • White 1,353 - 93% • Black 7 - 0.5% • Asian 6 - 0.4% • Hispanic 62 - 4.2% • Native American 3 - 0.2% • Multiracial 28 - 1.9% ==Athletics==

Huntington North, home of the Vikings, is a member of the Northeast Eight Conference. The school's colors are red, white, and black. The girls basketball team took the state title in 1990 and 1995. ==Activities==

The school yearbook, Deka, won a National Pacemaker Award in 1995. HNHS fields two competitive show choirs, the mixed-gender "Varsity Singers" and the all-female "Viking Volume". Both groups have claimed caption awards and state grand champion awards at ISSMA small-school state championships. The program also hosts an annual competition, the Midwest Showcase. ==Notable alumni==
