Nathan Hale High School runs on a 50-minute, 8 period, 2 semester schedule.

Central's first building was torn down and subsequently replaced with the current West Allis Public Library.

The current building for Nathan Hale has retained its stark, brutalist architecture of the 1960's, but not without renovations.

In 1999, the cafeteria moved downstairs into its current location in the northeastern corner of the building.

Traces of the old cafeteria are encased in the walls of the Mentoring Program homeroom, where water fountains are present.
