Oldham County High SchoolOldham County High School (OCHS) in Buckner, Kentucky was founded in 1953 and has a student body of approximately 1250 students in 9th through 12th grades. The school mascot is the colonel, and the colors are blue and white. When the school was opened, it was the only public high school in the county. However, due to Oldham County's decades-long transition from a rural area to a bedroom community for Louisville, Oldham County split into two high school attendance zones in 1989. That fall, the new South Oldham High School was opened in Crestwood. In order to further alleviate overcrowding, North Oldham High School was opened in 2003. OCHS was given the National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence award in 1987 and 2002. OCHS is perhaps most well known on a national level as being the school that has represented the state of Kentucky in the national finals of the United States Academic Decathlon (USAD) in 1993, 1997-2001, and 2003-2004.
