The school's auditorium is the City of Wasco's only listing on the National Register of Historic Places.

In the inaugural year, 28 students were enrolled at WUHS, and classes were held in a rented auditorium-like building called Wasco Hall.

In August 1916, a new high school building for WUHS was approved; it was completed within six months and cost about $50,000.

[5] Because WUHS is situated in a largely rural community, the school has for many years offered a program that places heavy emphasis on the development of both vocational and agricultural skills.

The Tigers participate in the South Sequoia League CIF Central Section[7] and have varsity and JV teams.
