The first purpose-built high school building in Fruita was completed in 1905 under the name Fruita Union High School.[3] After that structure burned down in 1934, classes were held in a local armory.[4] A new building was finished in 1936 and lasted until 1969, when a third location was built under the name Fruita Monument High School.[3]
A 2017 referendum resulted in a $12 million construction project to improve the safety of the school.[5]
Wildcat athletic teams are classified as 5A by the Colorado High School Activities Association.[6]
