History

Named after the residential neighbourhood it was constructed in. The name of Sherwood was chosen for its promotional value, as its origin is the Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire, England and this forest is famous because of the story of Robin Hood. The original building was constructed by West Jasper Placer School District in 1949. A gymnasium and classroom were added to the school in 1957. In 1976, the original 1949 and 1957 sections were demolished and the "new" 1976 building was attached to 1957 gymnasium.
