Accessed November 29, 2015.〕 ==History== Voters approved a referendum in June 1961 by a better than ten-to-one margin to provide for a $2.6 million bond covering the costs of construction.〔Staff. ("Waldwick Votes New School" ), ''The New York Times'', June 7, 1961. Accessed November 29, 2015.〕 Until the high school opened, Waldwick students had been enrolled at Midland Park High School as part of a sending/receiving relationship that led to overcrowding at the Midland Park school.〔Slocum, John W. ("New Jersey: Bergen" ), ''The New York Times'', September 4, 1961. Accessed November 29, 2015.〕 The school was completed in 1963 to accommodate 1,500 students in grades eight through twelve. The school opened with students in grades nine and ten, as students who had already been enrolled at Midland Park High School in previous years completed their education there. The first class of students graduated from Waldwick High School in 1966. The "Kids, Kids, Kids" preschool program was established in the 1970s, in which high school juniors and seniors work with preschoolers three days each week as part of an elective program for students that is available for a fee to the public.〔Greene, Rebecca. ("Waldwick High School celebrates 50 years" ), ''Waldwick Suburban News'', October 10, 2013. Accessed November 29, 2015. "In 1963, six years prior to her arrival, Waldwick High School opened in its current location at 155 Wyckoff Ave. Meant for 1,500 students, it had an enrollment in its first year of just freshman and sophomores, although it was built for students in Grades 8-12. That year, students in their junior and senior years attended Midland Park High School, where they began their high school careers."〕〔Weinberger, Jodi.
