History
In May 2021, a decision was passed by the school board to close the campus and consolidate it with the neighboring Analy High School. The school closed in July 2021, with the Class of 2021 being the last to graduate. Reaction by the local community was mixed, with certain members of the community feeling blindsided by the "abrupt" decision made.[5][9]
In subsequent years, the school has gained traction by the local community to reopen. In December 2024, a study was done on the feasibility to reopen the campus by the Sonoma County Office of Education. As of 2024, the campus is used for the Laguna High School continuation program and school district offices.[10]
