The original high school was built in 1983 and expanded in later years to accommodate a growing school population. A $66.8 million bond measure was passed in April 2014 to design and build a new high school on the same campus, with a capacity of 825 students. Construction began in May 2016.[3] The new two-story, 160,000 square feet (15,000 m2) building opened in September 2017 while demolition of the old building was still in progress.[4]
