History and characteristics

In 1966, Charlottetown Rural High School was built in the growing suburban community of West Royalty, north of the municipal limits of the city of Charlottetown.
In 1994, The school was completely renovated to its present configuration which saw a new cafeteria and specialist instruction space added. The renovations saw the building's exterior and interior remodelled using a modern design of unusual angles and curves that symbolize waves which surround Prince Edward Island.
In 1995, West Royalty was amalgamated into the city of Charlottetown; however the name of the school was not changed.

The school is currently the largest in the province in terms of student enrollment and 2nd largest in terms of area.

The high school offers both French and English language and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
