Fountain-Fort Carson High School

Fountain-Fort Carson High School was originally built in the heart of Fountain, where what is now known as Fountain Middle School. As the community continued to grow, it was necessary to build a new high school that would hold the current students and allow for future growth. In 1999, the high school opened its doors at its current location on Jimmy Camp and has continued to improve and grow, going through two additional expansions with a student count of approximately 1800 students.
