Tehachapi High School is the single comprehensive high school serving students in grades 9–12 in the Tehachapi, California area.

[2] Classes were held in a home originally built by Russell Peery in the 1890s in Cummings Valley.

The current campus was opened in 2003 after the community passed a $1.5 million bond in 1999 for the purpose of building a new high school.

[citation needed] The gym and cafeteria underwent major transformations to give it a cafe-like feel with bar stools, booths, and individual seating to accommodate nearly 1,700 students using funds that could not be used to pay staff or for educational purposes.

[citation needed] Over a summer, the Associated Student Body team got together to effect the changes.
