History

[edit]

Varina School was founded in 1909, the second oldest consolidated school in Virginia, which is now home to Varina Elementary. In 1916, the high school became accredited under the leadership of principal George F. Baker. In 1920, it became the Varina Agricultural High School. The current school opened on the Messer Road campus in 1963. It housed grades seven through twelve until John Rolfe Middle School opened in 1979. In 2009, Varina High School began a three-year, $30-million renovation project of the facility and grounds. [2]
