History
Bonanza opened in 1976, and is built in the same configuration as Eldorado High School, Basic High School and Vo-Tech high schools. Since it opened its doors in 1976 Bonanza has always been a large school with anywhere from 2000-3000+ students. However with the city of Las Vegas growing faster than before, bigger high schools were constructed to help resolve the over-crowding of schools. In the 2004-2005 school year, many former Bonanza students were zoned to attend the newly opened Spring Valley High School.
