Our History

The first public school in Norway was opened in 1879 with classes held in a carpenter shop owned by the Menominee Range Mining Company. Today, following the consolidation in 1964 of Norway City Schools, Norway Township, Waucedah Township and Faithorn, the Norway-Vulcan Area Schools serves nearly 800 students from a two-county area. The modern kindergarten through 12th grade campus is located on a 30 acre site nestled between neighborhoods, forests and lakes. Constructed in 1991 with additions in 1993 and 2000, facilities include three gymnasiums, centralized media center and the 684 seat Norway Fine Arts Center.
