Oroville High School is located in the rural north valley at the base of the Sierra Nevada foothills, about seventy miles north of Sacramento, California. Founded in 1892, Oroville High School is the oldest high school in the district. The campus covers 4 acres (16,000 m2). Of the 46 classrooms on campus, five have full functioning computer labs. Additionally, on campus are two computer labs and a library
In 2003, a school bond for $8,523,932 was passed, allowing for the construction of a new library, a science wing, and an industrial technology center. These funds will convert older buildings on campus to an art building, a center for performing arts, and a more modern gymnasium. Despite the money set aside, all of these projects were shelved due to the extreme financial situation of the school district.

Maxwell: On the contrary, you love me.”
—Muriel Box (b. 1905)
