") at the south end of Weber County.
The school was built at a large cost to the Weber County School District. Every effort was made to make Bonneville reflect the latest in technology and culture, including an in-house television station which still exists today, electronic language labs, and numerous art rooms. The building itself was designed with large, open spaces such as a central courtyard and smaller atriums spread throughout the campus.
As the area continued to grow, it became necessary to renovate the buildings to house a larger student population. Along with closing in the main courtyard and adding a new building behind the main structure, the freshman class was moved back into junior highs and middle schools. Several other additions and renovations have occurred since the 1970s. The junior highs that go into Bonneville are T.H Bell Jr High School and South Ogden Jr high School.
