Roseville High School is a public high school in Roseville, California, United States. It is a member of the Roseville Joint Union High School District.

History

Roseville High School was established in 1912. In the beginning of its history, RHS served as the primary high school for Roseville and the surrounding areas. As the population of Placer County increased, many schools were added to the Roseville Joint Union High School District. Today, RHS is one of the five major high schools in Roseville, California and serves many of the residents in central Roseville. Roseville High School was the 2008 Sierra Foothill League Football Champions and CIF Sac-Joaquin Section semi-finalist.

In 2011 a Titan arum flower successfully bloomed at the school after 10 years of cultivation,[2] making Roseville the first public high school in the world to successfully bring an Amorphophallus titanum to bloom.[3][4] The flower bloomed again in September 2020.[5]
