註釋The cornerstone For Owatonna High School was laid on September 3, 1920, for this 85,000 square feet floor space. The local architects were Jacobson and Jacobson, who were OHS graduates. The original cost of the building was $575,657. The High School opened September 14, 1921, with 60 seniors, 16 normal school students, and 10 post-graduate students. The first class graduated in 1922. There have been four additions over the years in 1954, 1955, 1957, 1996 and a separate auto-mechanics building which was added in 1978.In 1995, the film Angus (1995), whose cast included Ariana Richards and James Van Der Beek, was filmed on location in Owatonna, mostly at the OHS. [2]The OHS has had multiple renovations and changes after the 1950s additions. The old gym, located behind the auditorium, was sectioned off into two rooms which became the band and orchestra rooms in the 1991 renovation. The original lunchroom was located under the north wing of the 1921 part of the building and is now used for storage of janitorial equipment and school records. Under the Auditorium lobby lies the old Auditorium Fan Room which holds two, large and old fans that were used to circulate air through the auditorium before the installation of air conditioners. The area is now used as miscellaneous storage. On the south wing of the 1921 part of the school in the basement where the wood and metal shops were, are now used as equipment and tool storage for school custodial maintenance staff. The basement area underneath the auditorium stage and old gym, contained the original locker rooms and the old pool, until the old gym was converted into classrooms and pool closed. Afterwards the Theatre department began using the space for storage. The original library was located on the second floor above the main doors and was switched to a classroom after the band and orchestra moved to their current rooms behind the auditorium in the late 1980s. The Auditorium has received many changes by itself with the removal of windows, stage extension, technicians booth extension, seating replacement, removal of catwalk, switch to counter weight fly system, light replacement, stage replacement, and curtain replacement.Much of the 2014 silent film The Root of Evil was shot on location at Owatonna High School, most notably outside the main entrance and in the basement of the building. Produced by a cast and crew of over 60 Owatonna High School students, the film has received 10 awards at over eight film festivals on the international circuit.[3] Memorabilia from the film is set to be on display in the high school museum.
