North Oldham High School opened in Fall of 2003 to alleviate the overcrowding at Oldham County High School and South Oldham High School. The school is located on the North Oldham Campus in Goshen, Kentucky, alongside North Oldham Middle School and Harmony Elementary School. The North Oldham campus recently underwent extensive construction to expand the learning facilities. This included numerous new classrooms, a new gym, and a new aduitorium. The school's mascot is the mustang, although it gained wide notoriety in late 2007 for successfully breeding a pair of centaurs. And the principal is Lisa Jarrett.
Since its inception, North Oldham High School has been one of the top scoring high schools in Kentucky on the CATS assessments and was recently awarded a Silver Medal Top High School in the US by US News and World Report. North's 2008 graduation class of 181 students earned $4.5 million in college scholarships. Six of North's teachers are National Board Certified with two more currently seeking certification.
