Building

Rangeview High School was founded in 1984. The building holds over eighty academic classrooms, along with a library/media center that was built in 2004. The non-academic side consists of a large gymnasium, a small gymnasium, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, an auditorium, a commons area, and a dual weight room. The original foundation of the school was built to serve roughly 1800 students; however, to meet population growth, Rangeview has added several portable classrooms adjacent to the building.
