Andover High School was a public high school in Bloomfield Township, Oakland County, Michigan, near Bloomfield Hills and in Greater Detroit. It was a part of the Bloomfield Hills School District. The school's final principal was Rob Durecka. The school was founded in 1955. The school boasted programs in academics, the arts and sports. The school teams were known as the Andover Barons.In 2010, the decision was made to merge Andover and Lahser High schools and build a single high school on the current Andover property. Lahser's athletic facilities will be kept for use by the new high school.In the November 2, 2010 election, a bond proposal to fund the plan to consolidate Andover and Lahser High schools was defeated. This defeat was primarily due to the efforts of a grassroots organization Bloomfield 20/20, which fought the bond proposal. The district was sent back to the drawing board led by the school architectural firm Fielding Nair International (FNI). The final FNI discovery report proposed four building options. A community committee chose to pursue "Option C", a partial renovation/partial new consolidated high school building on the Andover site. The school board voted to do so in June 2010. The board and administration are working with FNI and the architectural firm SHW based in Berkley, Michigan to design the new consolidated school where Andover currently stands to save on operating costs due to declining enrollment. In 2013 it was merged into Bloomfield Hills High School, which is located on the Andover campus, thus returning Andover High School to its original name. The new combined high school opened in the fall of 2015.
