Hercules High School is a secondary school located at 1900 Refugio Valley Road in Hercules, California, United States. The campus consists of both a middle school and high school on the same premises, with the administrative complex and library separating the two sides. It was established in 2001 as a 6-12 school. In July 2014 the West Contra Costa Board of Trustees approved the split of the middle and high schools as two separate schools. It is a part of the West Contra Costa Unified School District.
As of 2010, the Hercules High School student population was 45.2% Asian/Pacific Islander, 25.0% Black, 14.9% Hispanic, 9.9% White, and 0.3% American Indian.[2] 25% were considered economically disadvantaged, participating in a free or reduced-price lunch program, and 9% were English language learners.[3]
Hercules High School competes in the Tri-County Athletic League (TCAL) of the North Coast Section (NCS).
Basketball is the only sport available on the middle school side. However for the high school students there is badminton, football, cross country, tennis, golf, water polo, cheer, soccer, basketball, softball, baseball, volleyball, swimming, and track.
The Hercules High School Rhythm n' Motion Dancers dance production group ended in 2011 when the dance teacher Teresa Felix retired because the school's dance program was being threatened by budget cuts.
