North Posey Senior High School is a public high school located in Posey County, Indiana, with a Poseyville postal address. North Posey is the high school for the MSD of North Posey County, which includes Bethel, Robb, Smith, Harmony, Center and Robinson Townships in Posey County, Indiana.
The school district includes the towns of Poseyville, New Harmony, Cynthiana and Griffin. The census-designated place of Parkers Settlement is in the district.
Plans to build a unified secondary school for the district were to commence in fall 1957.
North Posey was opened in 1959, after the four separate schools of Poseyville, Cynthiana, Wadesville and Griffin consolidated.
In 2012, New Harmony School consolidated with North Posey.
The New Harmony consolidation meant that people from that community could take Advanced Placement courses, as the New Harmony School did not have those classes. Additionally, North Posey had American football teams and New Harmony did not.
The facility is 2.5 miles (4.0 km) from Poseyville, to the southwest.
As of 1957 the plans were for a 40 acres (16 ha) site.
