Star Spencer High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Star Spencer High School is located in Spencer, Oklahoma. In 1901 a group of people from Spencer County, Indiana relocated in Oklahoma. They built an elevator and mill, a grocery store and later a hardware store. They named their new town Spencer for their old home and eventually called their school Spencer as well. Star School (in a nearby area) was named by Henry Dodd in honor of a school in Kansas where he had lived previously. Two schools merged to become Star Spencer in 1958. The official mascot for the school is the Bobcats. Star Spencer is part of the Oklahoma City Public Schools.
