History

Zephyrhills High School was created from the consolidations of one-room schools in the Zephyrhills area and opened in September 1910 at the corner of Seventh Avenue and Sixth Street. That building burned to the ground in 1926, and a new building was opened at 10th Avenue and 10th Street. The 1926 building was damaged by fire in 1935 and classes were held in local businesses for two years until the building was reconstructed and reopened in 1937. The school moved into its current location in 1975.
