The school itself is a 1948 consolidation of North Hampton and Lawrenceville high schools, deriving its name from the northwest portion of Clark County.

Accordingly, the school serves the residents of North Hampton and Lawrenceville as well as the villages of Tremont City, Dialton and Upper Fox Hollow, and adjacent rural areas in Pike and German Townships.

All remaining buildings were demolished, and the middle school ceased to exist.

In 2018, the district has opened a new Athletic Complex near its stadium.
