[edit] History

The school opened in August 1998 with only freshmen and sophomore students and part of the school not yet completed. In August 1999, juniors were added to the population. Finally, with portable classrooms already in the parking lot to hold the additional number of classes not foreseen before, the seniors were added to the population in August 2000. The first seniors graduated in May 2001, followed by the first senior class to attend all four years in Mesquite High School in May 2002.
