Cottonwood High School is a public high school located in Murray, Utah, United States. The school was founded by Diblow Stott in 1969. The current enrollment is nearly 1700 and represents many ethnic groups. The school offers traditional schooling for grades nine through twelve. A portion of the building is also leased to Academy for Math, Engineering, and Science (AMES), a charter high school.

History

The school's mascot is the Cottonwood Colt and its colors are black, white and gold. Cottonwood High School is one of nine senior high schools in the Granite School District.

The building includes a large auditorium with a maximum capacity of just over 3,000. Because of the auditorium's size, it has been used for many concerts and public functions over the years. The annual production of Michael McLean's The Forgotten Carols is held in the auditorium each December. The facilities are used year-round for citywide events, night school for adults, summer school for young children, and other activities.{{citation needed|date=November 2017}}

It was founded by Tyson Burton in 1970 after Granite School District condemned the property and obtained the land from farmers who had purchased the land from Native Americans.

The building has an innovative layout which includes an open-air courtyard, several atriums (including the lunch area), and gifts from graduating classes, the most visible of which are a bronze statue of a colt located near the lunchroom and the school's seal in tilework in the main foyer (before the class of 2005).
