Blissfield Community Schools is a public school district in Lenawee County, Michigan. It serves Blissfield and parts of the townships of Blissfield, Deerfield, Ogden, Palmyra, Raisin, Ridgeway, and Riga. It also serves part of Whiteford Township in Monroe County.
History Blissfield has had a high school since at least 1916, when it published its first yearbook. The former high school was located on the corner of Cherry Street and Giles Avenue in Blissfield.
The Blissfield School District reorganized around 1954 through the consolidation of several outlying districts. A bond issue to fund construction of a new high school passed in fall 1956, and construction was completed in fall 1958. The architect was Warren Holmes Company.
Originally, the high school athletes were called the Sugarboys because of the number of sugar beet farms in the area. The opening of the new high school came with a change of mascots as the Sugarboys became the Royals. The name of the student newspaper also changed from the Sugar Scoop to the Royal Jester.
Schools The district operates a high school, middle school, and elementary school on a campus at 630 South Lane Street in Blissfield.
