History
[edit]Bremen has had four different school buildings. The first one was a wood-frame building on the north side of town at the corner of Montgomery and Bike. It then got replaced with a brick building on the same lot. In 1939, a new high school was built at a cost of $250,000. In 1962 the present high school was built. Sixteen years later in 1978, the high school was expanded to include a media center, auditorium, choir and band center, swimming pool, and additional gymnasium.[3]
Athletics
[edit]Bremen has a football team dating back to the early 1900s but it was discontinued in 1907 due to risk of serious injuries. The school added football again in 1954.[4]
The Bremen football team won the State Championship in 1989(A) and 1994(AA). The softball team won state in 2019(AA).[5]
