History
In January 1956, Cleveland District State High School began operating on the grounds of Cleveland State School as the first secondary school in the Redland City area. The school had a population of 32 students and was led by Head Teacher Ted Liesegang. By 1960, the school had reached a total population of 54 students, followed by 84 in the following year. In order to meet the growing demands of the school, new school facilities were constructed on land on Russell Street in the early 1960s. The school was officially opened by the State Treasurer, Sir Thomas Hiley, on 27 April 1963.

The 2010s decade saw a substantial increase in enrolments at the school, with an official count of 2040 students in 2018 compared with 1205 students in 2010.
