In 2010, the Provincetown School Board elected to shut downProvincetown High School[7] by the end of the 2012–13 academic school year due to falling enrollment and lack of funds.[citation needed] By 2012 the 9th and 10th grade students at Provincetown were already moved to Nauset Regional.[8]
In 2012 the school began starting classes at a later time.[9]
In 2013 the school had 1,024 students, which was its highest level in the era. By 2020 it was down to 877. There was a decline of births in the area, and the newCape Cod Regional Technical High School was attracting students away from Nauset Regional.[10]
The Nauset School Committee voted to get rid of theNative American logo representing the "Warrior" but will keep the name "Warrior" as the official mascot.[11] The original mascot depicted a Native American man viewed from the side with Black & Gold war paint on his face, and a feather head-dress on his head, very similar to theWashington Redskins Native American logo. The logo for the school is now a block "N" with one half of the "N" painted black, and the other half painted gold.
