Wooster High School is a public high school in Wooster, Ohio. It is the only high school in the Wooster City School District. The mascot/nickname of the school is the Generals, named after American Revolutionary War General David Wooster. According to legend a ghost named Victor haunts Wooster High School. Legend holds that Victor's grave is under the stage of the Performing Arts Center, and Victor is unhappy about it. Legend also holds that Victor turns the lights off and on in the Performing Arts Center, goes into classes and starts DVD and VCR players, and unplugs teachers' computers.
The school's Latin club functions as a local chapter of both the Ohio Junior Classical League (OJCL)[1] and National Junior Classical League (NJCL).[2]
