History

CHS was the first high school in the area, established in 1894 when high school students met in the upper floor of the Corona Grammar school located in what now is called Victoria Park. The first actual High School opened in 1907. It was built in the Classic Revival style with columns and lots of steps on the front, on the west side of Main Street between Grand Boulevard and Olive street. This campus remained a high school until 1923, when the number of students outgrew the available classroom space. The second Corona High School was constructed, in the Mediterranean Revival style, at 815 West Sixth Street. This campus was designed by G. Stanley Wilson, an exceptional architect from Riverside, California, who had also designed parts of the Mission Inn. This campus remained in use as a high school until December 1960, when once again, the number of students exceeded its capacity After the high school moved from its second campus, the campus became Corona's Civic Center and City Hall. The second high school building is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The high school was relocated to 1150 West Tenth Street during the 1960-61 school year to accommodate a rapidly growing number of students wishing to attend. The graduates of 2012-2013 was the 118th graduating class at Corona High School.
