School history


The first campus constructed for Folsom High School was at 715 Riley Street. (The current home of Sutter Middle School.) Before Folsom High existed, students in Folsom attended San Juan High School on Greenback Lane in Citrus Heights. A major fire on June 22, 1959 destroyed most of the original buildings on the Folsom High School campus on Riley Street. The new Folsom High campus on Iron Point Road opened in August of 1998 for Junior and senior students only. Freshman and sophomore students remained at the old Riley Street campus until the second phase of the construction of the new campus was completed in 2000.
Folsom High School participates in the Academic Decathlon competition and has won first place awards in Sacramento County in both 2022 and 2023. In 2023, Folsom High School placed 9th overall in the California State Championship while competing in Division 1. In 2024, the school placed first in Sacramento County and 13th in the State Championship.
