Jamestown High School opened its doors in 1997 with the first student body consisting of Lafayette High School students and various, local middle school graduates. Although the high school is located in Williamsburg, its name is derived from the Jamestown Settlement located nearby. In 2007, Jamestown High School was replaced as the newest school within the district by Warhill High School, which was constructed out of necessary relief for population overcrowding. Some students from Jamestown, as well as Lafayette High School and local middle schools made up the first student body there.
