The high school, being open-campus and project-based, opened in the fall of 2007 with approximately 150 9th-grade students.[1][2] Students are admitted into the school through a randomized lottery acceptance system to bring diversity.

High Tech High Chula Vista has an internship program engrained into the junior-year curriculum. Junior students spend four weeks interning for a professional organization of their choice and need thirty hours a week. The students have a designated mentor in their organization who communicates with and supports them in their work. Juniors must complete a relevant project while in their internship that benefits the organization and is later presented to teachers, families, and mentors.[3]
