History
Cache La Poudre Middle School currently shares a large wooded campus with Cache La Poudre Elementary School. A school in one form or another has existed in this location for nearly 100 years. The first school was built in 1913 and was a K-12 school. The present day Cache La Poudre Middle School was built in 1949 and was originally called Cache La Poudre High School, while the original 1913 building housed kindergarten through 9th grade. In 1964 Poudre High School was built and Cache La Poudre High School became a junior high school (grades 7-9). In 1974 the original K-12 building was removed and Cache La Poudre Elementary School (grades K-6) was built. In the fall of 2009 Cache La Poudre Junior High School became Cache La Poudre Middle School as a result of a school district wide grade reconfiguration.
