History

The school was built in 1932. Named for the cities of Brookland (now West Columbia) and Cayce which it originally served, the school now serves parts of West Columbia, Cayce, South Congaree, Pine Ridge, and Gaston. It is a part of the Lexington County School District Two. When the high school first opened it was a segregated school. Brookland and Cayce were schools for whites. Over the years the schools joined together.[citation needed]

It was founded in order to serve the communities across the Congaree River from Columbia.[clarification needed]
