History

The former building, designed by Charles Pym, was constructed in 1964. It is now the elementary school. The junior high was added in 1970, after the original building was constructed.[3] In April 2014, voters passed a referendum to spend $17 million to build a new high school and junior high on the site of the former Parkview Elementary, with the elementary students to occupy the former high school and junior high.[4][5]
