Douglas High School (DHS) is a public secondary school in Minden, Nevada, U.S., in the Douglas County School District. The school has existed at a number of locations during its history, including the site of the current Carson Valley Middle School. It has been located on Highway 88 in Minden since 1976.
In May 2014, the campus underwent a major remodel that lasted through the summer of 2015. [2] The remodel reworked the entire front end of the school, adding a two-story Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (S.T.E.M.) building to the front of the campus.[ citation needed ]
In April 2025, the school is receiving $1.1 million in stadium improvements, including upgrading the 1980s-era restrooms to ADA compliance, replacing illegal wooden partitions, fixing failing bleacher foundations, and modernizing the electrical system that previously caused a homecoming game power outage.
