History

The school opened in 1950 for the education of white students only. High school students had been moved from the previous campus, Ponce de Leon High School. The new Coral Gables High retained the school yearbook name, ''Caveleon'', and the school mascot, "Cavaliers". Ponce de Leon High School became Ponce de Leon Junior High School. The building had a cost of $1,500,000. It had 63 classrooms, a bright color scheme, a mixed cafeteria and auditorium or cafetorium, a laundry room, and a then-modern type of public address system. In 1965, when integration of public schools was mandated by the federal courts, the nearby

In September 2009 a 17-year-old student stabbed another 17-year-old student to death at the school. The perpetrator received a 40-year prison sentence.
