Historical Class Composites and Yearbooks
We are committed to uplifting our alumni’s achievements and our District’s 150-year-old culture of excellence. You no longer have to be in our schools to see these archives. In addition to being available online, Sun Prairie East High School, Sun Prairie West High School, and Prairie Phoenix Academy have touch-screen digital exhibits showcasing class composite photos, Wall of Success honorees, and yearbooks.
Our Professional Learning Center, located on the historic hilltop campus southwest of downtown Sun Prairie hosts school board meetings and is home to our archive of Wall of Success plaques and framed class composite images dating back to 1886. The location formerly served as our Sun Prairie's original high school, and has been called “School House Hill.” Visit the plaques by attending a school board meeting in the Professional Learning Center.
1971 Junior High School Time Capsule
As crews were demolishing the former home of Prairie Phoenix Academy at 160 South Street, they discovered a time capsule within the walls. It was from the dedication of the building in 1971 when it opened its doors as Sun Prairie Junior High School. Below are a few artifacts from the time capsule.
The District has donated the time capsule and its contents to the Sun Prairie Historical Library and Museum, which has added these pieces of history to its permanent collection. If you would like to view all of the artifacts in person, the museum is located at 115 East Main Street in Sun Prairie.
