The current school building was built in the early 1990s to accommodate an ever-expanding student enrollment and opened in the spring of the 1991–92 school year. The school was built to handle an enrollment of up to 2,500 students; it was over-capacity from its opening and filled to capacity through the late 2000s.

It serves high school-aged dependent children living on Fort Huachuca.[2]

Theater

Buena was built with a large theater for use by both the high school and the community.
