Cordova High School is a public high school (grades 9-12) located at 1800 Berryhill Road in the Cordova community of unincorporated Shelby County, Tennessee, United States, east of the city of Memphis, with a ZIP code of 38016.
Cordova High School is a part of the Shelby County Schools.
It was previously a Memphis City Schools district campus. Before the merger of MCS, Cordova High School served portions of Memphis as well as some portions of unincorporated Shelby County which are also zoned to elementary and middle schools in the SCS district.
In 2007 Cordova High School had an expected enrollment of 2,400.
Cordova High School was constructed in 1996 and completed in 1997 as a joint venture between the Memphis City Schools district and the Shelby County Schools district. The school opened during the 1997-1998 school year to a class of freshmen as a school within the Shelby County Schools district. The freshmen of the 1997-98 school year voted the school's colors to be green and black, and the school's mascot to be the wolf. Every following year the school added a new class until 2001, when the first graduating class left Cordova High School.
The 2003-04 school year ended with Cordova High School leaving the Shelby County Schools district and joining the Memphis City Schools district. Cordova adopted a school uniform policy in Fall 2004, since the entire Memphis City Schools district adopted a uniform policy. All schools were required to adopt one at the time. A student petition created at the end of the 2014-2015 school year caught Principal Chandler's attention, bringing an end to the uniform policy after a vote by the parents. The uniform policy was replaced by a dress code.
