History

When the sagemont lower school opened its new facility in 1996 across the street there was an annex that housed the middle school (6th-8th). It contained very little amount of students, but in late 1998 the school realized that they needed a better building to house the middle school in so they built The Upper School located about 3 miles north west of the lower school location. In 2000, The Upper School was opened housing both Middle and High School students. The school continued to grow and still continues to grow till this date. This year in 2007-08 school year the school housed its largest graduating class of 49 students.

When the Upper School first opened they played their basketball games out on a small outdoor basketball court on the side of the school. Many of their school teams did not receive any wins and all losses. The school realized it needed better facilities to play their games so in 2003 the school began construction on the lower school campus of the new "Sagemont Dome". The dome was finished in mid-2004 and hosted all volleyball and basketball games. In 2007 the school began construction of the athletic facilities at the upper school tearing down the small basketball and tennis courts and created a multi-million dollar athletic facility teaming of with Weston Sports Institutes the dome is rented out on weekends regularly upon its completion in April 2008.
