History
Mahomet-Seymour High School was built in 1981 and has since undergone expansion as the community of Mahomet continues to grow. The latest expansion was completed in August 2000 and brought 16,000 sq ft (1,500 m2). (when completed the building was over 80,000 sq ft (7,000 m2)) of additional space to the building, increased student capacity to 1,100, and cost $8,701,400. As of the 2004-2005 school year, the school has an enrollment of 863 students and a faculty of fifty-two full-time teachers. On May 5, 2007, school board members unanimously approved a Mahomet-Seymour Schools Foundation plan to raise money to build a greenhouse.[5] In early 2008, the greenhouse was pronounced to be ready for spring.[6]
