History
Cordova High School was constructed in 1996 and completed in 1997 as a joint venture between two districts known for Memphis City Schools and Shelby County Schools, as the school's operating systems. The school opened during the 1997-1998 school year to a class of freshmen as a school operated by the Shelby County Schools. The freshmen of the 1997-98 school year voted the school's colors to be green and black, and the school's mascot to be the wolf. Every following year the school added a new class until 2001, when the first graduating class left Cordova High School.
