History
The school was built as a response to the growing population of Warren County. The new building, which opened for classes in Fall of 2007, educates 60% of the county's population. This uneven division was chosen to accommodate the growth anticipated for the eastern part of the county which is closer to Washington, D.C. where population and enrollment will increase faster at Warren than at Skyline. Prior to the school's opening, all students in the county attended Warren County High School on Luray Avenue.
The old Warren County High School on Luray Avenue has been converted into Skyline Middle School.
Athletics
The Skyline Hawks' colors are green, gold and blue. In athletic and academic competition they are part of the Northwestern District of the Virginia High School League. Rivals include local high schools Warren County High School and Randolph-Macon Academy.
