West Park High School is an American public high school located at 2401 Panther Place in Roseville, California, United States. The school was established in 2020 and serves grades 9–12. It is the newest of the six comprehensive high schools of the Roseville Joint Union High School District.
History
The land for West Park High School was purchased by the Roseville Joint Union High School District in 2011, and voters approved the bond measure funding its construction in 2016.[3] Becky Rood-Guzman was announced as the school's founding principal in 2019.[4] The school opened for the 2020–21 school year, initially enrolling only freshmen and sophomores.[3] All four grade levels were present on campus by the 2022–23 school year, and West Park graduated its first senior class in June 2023.[3] Liz Sisson was approved by the school board to become the school's principal beginning with the 2026–27 school year.[5]
Due to rapid residential development in west Roseville, West Park High School has faced overcrowding pressures. District projections presented in spring 2026 estimated enrollment could approach 3,200 students by the 2028–29 school year. To manage capacity, the Roseville Joint Union High School District board approved district‑wide attendance boundary changes in May 2026, reassigning several neighborhoods beginning in 2027–28.[6]
Total enrollment grew to 2,386 students by the 2025–26 school year, according to California Department of Education enrollment data.[7]
