Highlands Ranch High School(shortened as HRHS) is a public high school in Highlands Ranch, Colorado and is located in the Highlands Ranch neighborhood of Eastridge. HRHS is part of the Douglas County School District and was the third high school in the district, after Douglas County HS and Ponderosa HS (in Castle Rock, CO and Parker, CO respectively.) The school was opened in 1987 and was the first high school in Highlands Ranch. The rapid population growth in northern Douglas County, CO resulted in the opening of three other high schools in the area since HRHS opened.
HRHS is fed directly by Cresthill Middle School, which is adjacent to the high school campus. The school has been renovated several times in its relatively short history, most recently in 2003.
The school's mascot is the falcon. The school's girls basketball team won the Colorado state championship for three straight years from 2000-2002 and is the alma mater of WNBA and UConn womens basketball star Ann Strother, who transfered to the school in her junior year. The school has also won several championships in poms and cheerleading.
As of 2006, the principal of the school is Jerry Goings. The school has a strong academic history and offers a number of Advanced Placement classes, though it does not participate in the International Baccalaureate program, which is located at Douglas County High School.
