Founded in 1837 as Auburn Academy, Auburn High School is the oldest public secondary school in Alabama, and is the fifth-oldest extant public high school in the American South.〔United States Bureau of Education, ''Annual report of the Commissioner of Education for the year ended 1902'' (Washington: G.P.O., 1902), 1696, 1696–1879; Mollie Hollifield, ''Auburn: Lovliest Village of the Plain'' (S.l.: s.n., 1955), 72.〕 From 1852 through 1885, the school was known as the Auburn (Masonic) Female College, offering secondary and, prior to 1870, collegiate degrees.〔United States Bureau of Education, ''Annual report of the Commissioner of Education for the year ended 1902''; United States Bureau of Education, ''Report of the Commissioner of Education made to the Secretary of the Interior for the year 1890, with accompanying papers'' (Washington: G.P.O., 1890).〕 From 1892 through 1908, the school was named the Auburn Female Institute, providing collegiate programs equivalent to an associates degree.〔Hollifield, ''Auburn: Lovliest Village of the Plain'', 73; Auburn High School, ''Auburn High School Catalogue, Session 1908–1909'' (Auburn: The Auburn High School, 1908).〕 Auburn High became Lee County's flagship high school in 1914 as Lee County High School, and gained its present name, Auburn High School, in 1956.〔Mickey Logue and Jack Simms, ''Auburn, A Pictorial History of the Lovliest Village'' (Auburn: s.n., 1996), 98; ''Lee County Bulletin'', August 30, 1956.〕 The school moved to its current campus in 1965.〔Alabama, Dept. of Education, ''Report of a partial survey of the Auburn City School System, 1977–78'', (SG023316–23331, Alabama Dept. of Archives and History, 1978).〕
Auburn High was ranked the 28th best non-magnet public high school and 77th best public high school in the United States by ''Newsweek'' in May 2006, and the second best educational value in the Southeastern United States by SchoolMatch, as reported in the ''Wall Street Journal''.〔Barbara Kantrowitz and Pat Wingert, "America's Best High Schools, 2006", ''Newsweek'' 147 (May 8, 2006): 50–54. The non-magnet ranking was taken by eliminating schools from the 2006 ''Newsweek'' list which used selective processes for admission. Tamar Hausman, "School Expenses", ''The Wall Street Journal, Southeast Journal'', May 13, 1998〕 Auburn High School averages seven National Merit Finalists a year, and has scored among the top five percent of Alabama high schools on statewide standardized tests each year since testing began in 1995.〔J.
