History
editThe community of Citrus Heights realized in 1911 that there was a need for a four-year high school in the area, and San Juan High School (then known as the Grammar School) began in a small building located in the town of Fair Oaks. In 1913, the San Juan Union High School District was organized. This district was composed of the Sylvan, Orangevale, Fair Oaks, Roberts, and San Juan Districts. 46 students were enrolled in the Grammar School during the 1913–1914 school year, of which 41 were freshmen. Dorothy Gertrude Jerauld, the first student to complete studies at the Grammar School, graduated in June 1914.
After Citrus Heights' founder Walter Trainor donated land, construction began on a new school at the current location off of Greenback Lane in 1915. An influx of students from around the Sacramento area, Folsom included, increased enrollment to 92 students. The original building was expanded in 1938, when work was completed on the "A" and "B" wings of San Juan High School, and two years later, enrollment had increased to 400 students. The older portions of the school had fallen into disrepair, but began to be used again at this time. More wings were added after World War II, and a shop and gymnasium were also added. Approximately 600 students currently attend the school.[3]
The San Juan Alumni Association was formed in 1980 and had 1,100 dues paying members as of 2011.
