[edit] History
The City of Pacific Grove formed the Pacific Grove Unified School District in 1895. On June 18, 1896 the City passed a bond issue to build the town's first high school. This school, Pacific Grove High, became Monterey County's first high school. The first class graduated in June, 1898. The school has changed locations twice since then, to its current location on Sunset Avenue.
PGHS currently has a student population hovering between 550 and 650.
