San Bernardino High School was officially established when residents of the San Bernardino, California approved a US$60,000 (equivalent to $2,150,000 in 2025) bond for construction of a high school in 1891.[1] Construction of a three-story building at the southwest corner of Eighth and E Streets was completed in 1892 and received state accreditation in 1893 as San Bernardino Polytechnic High School.[1] In 1915, after enrollment had exceeded 400 students, a new campus was built consisting of five main buildings.[3]
