In the fall of 1916, Riverside Junior College opened as an extension of Poly High School. Riverside Junior College was the seventh community college to open in California. In the early years, the college shared the campus with Poly High School and in 1921 voters supported a bond measure which provided funding to construct a high school campus separating the two educational entities. The campus went through major expansions in both 1924 and 1965 and in early 2000. Riverside Junior College was later renamed Riverside City College (RCC) and is the largest of three colleges in the Riverside Community College District.
