The 2011–2012 academic year began August 22, 2011 and ended with graduation day on June 8, 2012. Bishop Union High School has a current enrollment of approximately 550 students. Enrollment figures in the late 1970s and into the early 1990s hovered around 1,000 students. The nearby Union Carbide mine closure, coupled with the City of Los Angeles ownership of most of the land around Bishop, therefore controlling community development, caused Bishop schools to suffer a downturn in enrollment in the late 1990s and into the 2000s.
