School History

ArmDrag.com is not sure when Washington High School was opened nor when they began their wrestling program. However, it is known that its last school year was 1939-40.

Due to the war in Europe, during the 1940 summer recess the Rochester Board of Education abruptly decided to convert Washington High School into a vocational school. The conversion was a surprise to hundreds of Washington students and teachers who found themselves scattered throughout the district at the beginning of the new school year.
