Oxford High School (Michigan)

[10] In Lapeer County, the district serves sections of Dryden and Metamora townships.

Oxford's chief rival is Lake Orion, located directly in the township to the south, and connected by M-24.

The teams had competed annually from at least 1950 until 1983 when Oxford moved to the Flint Metro League.

[16] As a result of the move, the sports rivalry with Lake Orion resumed after a 27-year hiatus.

[17][18] In 2011, the school installed blue-colored artificial turf for the football stadium at a cost of $400,000, which was to be paid for with private donations.

[19] The AstroTurf made headlines when it was revealed that several athletics boosters had put their personal homes up as collateral for the purchase of the field.

[20] When initial fundraising efforts came up short, the boosters were hit with a $300,000 balance and were in danger of defaulting.
