The Avondale School District is a public school district in Metro Detroit in the U.S. state of Michigan, serving portions of Auburn Hills, Bloomfield Township, Rochester Hills, and Troy.[3] As of the 2021–22 school year, the district serves 3,826 students.
The district is derived from Auburn Heights Rural Agricultural School District, which formed in 1947 from the consolidation of the following elementary schools: Auburn Heights, Stone, Stiles, and Elmwood.[4] The name of the district was chosen in a contest. Joseph Jungle won the contest and was awarded $10.[5]
Avondale High School was first operated within the Auburn Heights school building at the southwest corner of Squirrel and Waukegan. A new high school was constructed in 1951 on Auburn Road between Crooks Road and Livernois Road. This building became a middle school when the present high school opened in 1970.
