North Bend has a noteworthy historical background, being the home of President William Henry Harrison and the birthplace of his grandson, President Benjamin Harrison. President Harrison's memorial and tomb is within walking distance of Taylor High School and overlooks the Ohio River.
Congress Green Cemetery is the final resting place of many of the early settlers in the region including John Cleves Symmes.
PARKS
There are two Hamilton County Parks in the Three Rivers district: Shawnee Lookout and Mitchell Memorial Forest. A portion of the Neuman Golf Course is within Miami Township. Shawnee Lookout Park also has a golf course. A new Jack Nicklaus golf course is located in Aston Oaks.
INDUSTRY
We're fortunate to be located in an industrial community. Bayer, Marathon/Ashland Petroleum, Royster-Clark Nitrogen, Owens-Corning, Reis Trucking, Consolidated Grain, Dupont, and Cincinnati Gas and Electric (Cinergy) Miami Fort Power Station are some of the businesses located in the District.
NON-PUBLIC SCHOOLS
There are no non-public schools in the Three Rivers district. Elementary students are transported to Our Lady of Visitation, St. Bernard, St. Jude and St. Aloysius-on-the-Ohio elementary schools and Mercy and Elder high schools.
Three Rivers Middle School and Taylor High School are accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Three Rivers Middle School was the first middle school in southwestern Ohio and the 13th in Ohio to be accredited (1972). Taylor High School has been accredited since 1965.
The "Three Rivers" after which the district is named are the Ohio River, the Great Miami and the Whitewater River. Because the nearby Ohio River makes a spectacular north bend in the river, the first settlers named the community "North Bend."
