Campus
Yosemite High School is located in the Sierra Nevada foothills in the rural community of Oakhurst, 12 miles from the south entrance to Yosemite National Park in Central California. The campus is on a 100-acre site graced with pines, oaks, and seasonal streams with views of the High Sierra. The appearance of the 25-year-old campus is being transformed by a construction project resulting from the passage of an $11.76 million bond measure in 1998. The project includes a comprehensive library media center, state-of-the-art computer labs, science labs, classrooms, cafeteria/multi-purpose building, swimming pool, and a $6.5 million performing arts center. Amid the clamor of construction, the student body of 1,100 and staff of 95 continue to achieve impressive educational and extra-curricular successes, and to work toward meeting the new challenges of standards-based educational programs.
