History
The first Christian high school in Highlands Ranch, Colorado with a planned US$93 million for the school's construction.[2] Construction is still underway.
Campus
The academic campus has 35 classrooms, 8 science labs, 5,300 sq. ft. library, 2 technology labs, and a world language lab. There is a chapel, as well as plans for a Visual and Performing Arts Center.
Athletically, there are 2 gymnasiums, a wrestling room, fitness center, locker rooms, and plans to build a 3,000 seat staduim, a synthetic field and olympic track, softball and baseball fields, an aquatic natatorium with a 50-meter pool, a 25 meter pool, and separate diving well.
Students
In 2007, 170 freshmen and sophmore students are were enrolled with plans to expand each preceding year to a goal of 1,200.
Extracurricular activities
In the 2005-2006 school year, Castle View's football team played in the 3A Central Metro League. Unfortunately, there has been much struggle between DCHS and CVHS. The most tangible evidence for this would be the cut on the stuffed football tackle dummy. CVHS recorded this in their newspaper. [3] All other sports will compete in the 4A Continental League.
Extracurricular activities presently offered at the school include a theatre group, ACT OUT!, and a student newspaper, The View, along with an online version called Cybercat.
Curriculum
Castle View is the third high school in Douglas County to offer Chinese in its foreign language courses.[4]
