The district named the school after the Youngker family, who donated the land that the high school sits upon.
Its roof sustained damage in the 2011 Phoenix dust storm, causing water damage to several classrooms. Debris shattered two windows.[2]
To accommodate unexpected growth, a former practice gym was converted into 12 classrooms for the 2022–23 school year.[3]
