Roseville Area High School (RAHS) is a high school located in Roseville, Minnesota near the Twin Cities. It was formed after the 1986 merger of Alexander Ramsey High School and Kellogg High School. The merger took place due to declining enrollment at both schools. The new high school used the facilities from the preexisting Alexander Ramsey complex, and the former Kellogg High School became Roseville Area Middle School. Originally the school district was going to build a second high school in the nearby Lake Owasso area. Instead, the decision was made to expand and remodel the existing Roseville Area High School in the early 1990s. The land held by the school district was sold and the money from it was used to finance the construction at RAHS. The community built on the sold land is now known as Owasso Hills. From 1986 to 1997 RAHS was only 10-12th grades with 9th grade at Roseville Area Middle School. Upon completion of the construction in the fall of 1997, 9th grade was moved to RAHS.
