[edit] History

On May 12, 2007, Sunnyvale ISD residents approved a $25 million bond by a narrow 53% margin for the creation of a high school in Sunnyvale. Currently, high school students in the small town of about 4,000 are zoned to North Mesquite High School in the Mesquite Independent School District. For 2007-2008 school year, ninth grade students will be housed at the Sunnyvale Middle School campus, as will ninth and tenth graders for the 2008-2009 school year. Construction of Sunnyvale High School will began in spring 2008 and is expected to be completed in 2009. The 2009-2010 school year will be the first year that students attend the actual SHS campus.^[1]

The high school will add one grade, consecutively. This means that Sunnyvale students currently attending North Mesquite High School will finish their high school education there, and the class of 2010 will be the last North Mesquite class that caters to Sunnyvale students. The class of 2011 will be the first class that graduates from Sunnyvale High School, and the class of 2013 will be the first class to have attended all four years on the school's campus.
