The original location of Weber High School was between 11th and 12th Street on the east side of Washington Boulevard in Ogden (site of a Shopko store from the mid-1980's - present). In 1926, Weber County voters approved a $300,000 bond for a county high school by a vote of 733 to 480. Construction of the building began in 1926 and was completed in 1927. Educators began holding school in the building in October of 1926, with Keith Wahlquist as principal, although the school was still under construction.
Weber High School was the first high school built for Weber County students, providing education for youth throughout the Ogden Valley, as well as the counties surrounding the Ogden area. As the population of Weber County grew, so did the Weber High School student body. Even though the school was well-equipped, additions were eventually needed to provide appropriate educational opportunities. Cottages, shops, an aeronautics lab, a cafeteria, and a football field were slowly added to the structure.
