About NRHEG

NRHEG High School was established in 1992 when the former New Richland-Hartland and Ellendale-Geneva schools combined to form as NRHEG.[2] The school prides itself on "providing each student the opportunity to access a comprehensive general education in a positive learning environment."[3] The NRHEG secondary (high school) building holds grades 6-12. The 9-12 student enrollment is about 300, 49% male and 51% female. The district's elementary school holds grades K-5, located in Ellendale. [4]

Academics

NRHEG HS has a 95% graduation rate and 29 full-time teachers. It has performed better than 55% of Minnesota schools on both math and reading standardized tests.[5]

Athletics

NRHEG high school participates in boys and girls basketball, cheerleading, boys and girls cross country, football, boys and girls golf, softball, baseball, track and field, volleyball, wrestling, and combines with Waseca High School in gymnastics, soccer, and hockey.[6] In 2013-14, the NRHEG high school athletics had a very successful year. Three wrestlers made the state wrestling tournament as individuals. The competitive cheerleading squad achieved its second consecutive state title at the MCCA State Cheer Competition. The boys basketball team won the Gopher Conference, which has not been achieved since 1996.[7] The girls basketball team also won the Gopher Conference for the sixth time in a row, as well as the Class AA state title for the second time in a row. The girls basketball team made an appearance at state three years in a row, 2012, 2013, and 2014.[8] The Clay Target Shooting team won its conference and, after finishing 3rd at the Class AAA State Championship, qualified for the first ever MSHSL State Clay Target Tournament. This was the first event of its kind in the nation.[9][10]
