Overview
change
Haines City High School belongs to the Polk County School Board and is a member of Polk District Schools. Haines City High School was the original high school in the city, opening in 1922. In the fall of 2005, a new school called Ridge Community High School opened, becoming Haines City High School's new rival (the old one being Lake Wales High School). The new school was opened to relieve attendance overflow from HCHS. During the 2005-2006 school year there was a Tuberculosis scare due to one of the students being diagnosed with Tuberculosis.[1]
