Redlands East Valley High School (REVHS, Redlands East Valley, or REV) is a public high school in Redlands, California, United States, near the San Bernardino Mountains. The school opened in the 1997-1998 school year as part of the Redlands Unified School District.
The school colors of REV are red, white and black. Red and white were chosen to contrast with the blue and white of cross-town rivals Redlands High School (RHS). The same rationale chose the Wildcat as REV mascot, which contrasts with the RHS Terrier.
The school is a 264,000-square-foot (24,500 m2) comprehensive high school located on a 57-acre (230,000 m2) sloping site. Designed to house 2,500 students but currently housing about 2,400 students, the school includes administration facilities, media center, theater and performing arts facility, multi-purpose facility, gymnasium, fine arts building and specialized educational classrooms. Site improvements include a pool facility, track and football field, tennis courts, basketball courts, and baseball and softball fields.
An element in the design was a focus on the media center and its application of technology. A path that circles the media center leads visitors to all the major facilities. Concrete masonry, exposed structural steel, glass and metal roofs make up the majority of the building exteriors.
The school cost US$35,000,000 (41 million 1995) to build and was completed in September, 1997. The roof of the Media Center Library was designed to look like an opened book. The performing arts building was designed to look like a piano, complete with black and white tiles on the floor in the piano lab. The Performing Arts Theater is named in honor of Harry Blackstone Jr., a stage magician who lived in Redlands.
The Odyssey yearbook is a full-color yearbook, with pictures and faces of all things related to the ending school year. The 2014-2015 school year is the beginning of a new Odyssey Era with Photography and Digital Art Teacher, Kelly Tilson directing the yearbook staff.
