Area school one-hundred year story is catalogued Area schools have been the foundation of Jefferson High School, and their history must be noted. Area parochial schools have been important to Jefferson. St. John’s Catholic School was built in 1955 and boasted 372 students in that year, with enrollment this year holding at 151. St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran School was built in 1865, with the present school being built sixty years later. Recent enrollments reached 223. St. Peter’s Lutheran School, built in 1957, taught 63 students. Jefferson’s East and West Elementary schools both held a little over three hundred students each. Sullivan Elementary noted about 250 students, with the middle school noting an enrollment of over 300. Mr. Wayne Sheil was principal at East Side Elementary, with Mr. William Bluege heading West Elementary, Mr. Dan Wenkman Sullivan Elementary, and Mr. Allan Peters the middle school.
