Simi Valley High School is a secondary school located in Simi Valley, California which was established in 1920 as the first high school in the valley. It nestles in the Santa Susana Mountains and is adjacent to the San Fernando Valley, part of the city and county of Los Angeles. Simi Valley High School has undergone several configurations over the years to become the 50.4-acre campus it is today. The current campus was built in three phases during the 1960's. Based on the physical concept of "schools-within-a-school," Simi Valley High School was constructed with three instructional quads, each having an administrative area. The original design also included one main administration building. Currently Simi Valley High is configured with five major instructional areas, a multipurpose building, a gym and dressing room facilities, a library, a counseling facility, an administration building, a new area of portable classrooms, a stadium and athletic fields, and a new senior patio. It was ranked as the 555th best high school according to MSNBC's Top 1000 High Schools. Their athletic teams are known as the Pioneers; the mascot is Herman the Pioneer with a raccoon style hat and the school colors are maroon and gold.
