Santa Rosa High School is steeped in tradition. We were the 9th high school chartered in California, and this community's only public high school from 1874 until 1958. Our core academic program is composed of rigorous courses in English, math, science, social studies, foreign language and physical education.
Foreign languages offered are Spanish, French and Latin.
Advanced placement is available in Spanish, French, English, Art, calculus, biology, chemistry, physics, economics and U.S. History. Physical education, required for graduation, emphasizes fitness and healthy living. The vocal music program is recognized in the community and throughout the western United States as a program of genuine excellence. Admission to this program is through an application process. Students take their core English, history and science from teachers who coordinate with the ArtQuest specialty teachers, so students have an exceptionally rich experience.
