Overview
The school was constructed in 1980, and has a rated capacity of 750.
To help ease congestion, one classroom is now available in an air conditioned trailer outside the high school. The high school is scheduled to go through a 3 year, multimillion dollar renovation starting in the spring/summer of 2014.
Curriculum
Rocky Hill High School is accredited by the Connecticut State Department of Education and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. Several "Early College Experience" classes are offered at RHHS in collaboration with the University of Connecticut.
The core curriculum is composed of English, social studies, math, science, and foreign languages. Many extracurricular classes are available in areas such as technology and art, as well as independent study.
As of May 2009, Rocky Hill High School was coordinating with the Virtual High School program, to help provide students with extra opportunity to take classes on line. These classes are ones generally not offered to students at RHHS, and will count towards minimum required number of credits (22) needed to graduate from Rocky Hill High School.
Recognition
Accreditation
In 2011 the New England Association of Schools and Colleges voted to continue Rocky Hill High School's existing accreditation, but put the school on warning due to concerns about the curriculum and facilities. The school's leadership noted that a $39 million upgrade, which would have addressed most of these issues, had been part of a school funding referendum rejected by the voters in June 2010. In January 2012, the outgoing school superintendent warned that the school "will be placed on probation and will lose accreditation if no action is taken."
