Pacific Grove High School (PGHS) is a public high school located in Pacific Grove, California, between Carmel and Monterey.
History
The City of Pacific Grove formed the Pacific Grove Unified School District in 1895. On June 18, 1896 the City passed a bond issue to build the town's first high school. This school, Pacific Grove High, became Monterey County's first high school, but today it is Monterey County's smallest public high school. The first class graduated in June, 1898. The school has changed locations twice since then, first to what is now the Pacific Grove Middle School (PGMS), then to its current location on Sunset.
Its colors are based on Stanford University and UC Berkeley.
Pacific Grove shares a rivalry with Carmel High School, where every year the two football teams compete for a bronze shoe in the Shoe Game.
PGHS currently has a student population hovering between 550 and 650.
