Rockledge High School is located in Rockledge, Florida, USA, and is part of the Brevard Public Schools District.
Rockledge High School was founded in 1970 on the site formerly named Cocoa High School.
In 2005, Rockledge High School became the first in the school district to offer the Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE). In 2007, Rockledge was designated an International Fellowship Center, a special recognition only available to schools with an AICE program, making it only the 19th in the world and the 5th in the U.S. to gain this title.
In 2009, the estimated income to fund sports at the school was $144,502, equivalent to $312 per athlete.
In 2013, Rockledge alumnus and NFL player Laurent Robinson donated 15 Shockbox concussion sensors to the school. Rockledge was the first high school in Florida to use such technology to monitor its players, which will occur throughout the 2013-14 season in collaboration with researchers from the University of South Florida.
The school won the state championship in 3A football in 2001 and 2002.
Rockledge also won the state championship in 4A baseball in 2004.
