Thunder Mountain High School is one of three public high schools in Juneau, Alaska. It was opened for the 2008–2009 school year. In its first year in operation it served grades 9–11; the Juneau School District wanted seniors (grade 12) to finish at their existing high schools. Thunder Mountain High School is located in the Mendenhall Valley section of Juneau and draws most of its students from this area, although under an open enrollment policy, high school students anywhere in the district may attend any of the three high schools.[2]

In August 2009, TMHS became an official a member of the Alaska School Activities Association and competes inter-scholastically with other schools in the state in athletic events and academic activities. For athletics, Thunder Mountain is classified as 4A, which includes the largest high schools in the state.

As of 2014, there were 676 enrolled students.[3] Thunder Mountain High School is physically located at 3101 Riverside Drive, Juneau, Alaska 99801.[4]
