It was built as a relief school for overcrowded Miami Springs Senior High School, which used to the serve the area. The school was also opened to relieve a distance problem, as high school students would have to commute seven to nine miles (14 km) to reach Miami Springs High School; the school was named after Ronald Reagan, a former President of the United States. The campus is located on and contains approximately of classroom, office, and computer lab space. Outdoor facilities include football, softball, baseball and soccer fields, as well as basketball, racquetball, and tennis courts. The facilities also include an 800-seat auditorium, a 700-seat cafeteria, a state-of-the-art Media Center, and an indoor gymnasium. The school opened its doors to students on August 14, 2006. At the 2007 homecoming pep rally, the classes of 2009, 2010, and 2011 named the mascot, "Tyson D. Bison." As of the 2008-2009 school year, 12th grade students located within the boundaries of the school who used to be zoned to Miami Springs Senior High School are zoned to Reagan/Doral, making it the first year that the school has all four grade levels (9-12). Reagan/Doral's first graduating class was the class of 2009. Reagan/Doral's athletic rivals are Miami Springs High School and Doral Academy Charter High School. A more informal rival is Mater Academy Charter School. The school yearbook is called Tatanka (American Bison in the Lakota language)〔()〕 and the monthly free newspaper is the Reagan Advocate. In February 2008, the City of Doral Trolley began service to Reagan/Doral. This new form of transport to and from the school proved to be a hit. Former Principal Douglas P. Rodriguez was named Miami-Dade County Principal of the Year for 2008 in an awards ceremony on May 6, 2008. Principal Rodriguez was also the proud recipient of the 6th Annual Leonard Miller Principal Leadership Award and the Florida Principal of the Year Award. As per the November 2008 Issue of the Reagan Advocate, a new building will be built off campus at NW 90th St. and NW 114th Ave. Known as the "Ninth Grade Center," it will house only ninth grade students who will transfer over to the main campus after their first year in high school, alleviating overcrowding expected in the coming years. Plans for the building to have been completed in time for the 2010-2011 academic school year did not materialize and the status of this project is currently unknown. On December 12, 2008, Principal Douglas P. Rodriguez's tenure as Principal of the school ended and he became principal of Miami Central High School. Replacing him, was Jacques Y.
