Vista Grande High School is a high school in Casa Grande, Arizona started in 2009. It is part of the Casa Grande Union High School District. It was opened to relieve continuing enrollment growth at Casa Grande Union High School, which had swelled to over 3,300 students and become Arizona's largest single-campus high school during the mid-2000s as the town it served exploded in population. Ground was broken in 2007 on the 259,000 square feet (24,100 m2) of space on the 60-acre (24 ha) campus. The school has a capacity of 1,875 students, a capacity it is nearing as of 2012. At the start of the 2011 school year, Vista Grande had an estimated 2,000 students enrolled and is continuing to expand. Vista Grande's primary sport is football, by having the most support in means of staff, students, and accessible money. In 2010, the Spartans' varsity football team won the Arizona state independent championship over Campo Verde High School. Vista Grande is now part of Arizona's football Division 5A and can now compete for an actual state title. The Boys Varsity Soccer team went to their first playoff game in school history in 2016. Also in 2016 the Vista Grande basketball team went to the sectional tournament and lost, led by Andrew Spignor, Jeremy Zepeda, Brendan Ethinton, and the late addition of Skyler Collins among others.

Building at 400 East Third Street

The Building at 400 East Third Street, in Casa Grande, Arizona, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. It was built around 1950 in a simplified Romanesque Revival style.The building was commissioned by a local Church of Christ that had been meeting in a grammar school auditorium and was built with hired and volunteer labor; the first services were held on January 3, 1943, though the building was unfinished due to wartime restrictions on building materials. The Church of Christ moved to 805 E. Racine in 1985. After moving out, the building has been home to a succession of churches, with the building being owned by the Church of God of Prophecy (Spanish: Iglesia de Dios de la Profecia, also known as Templo Bethel and later Comunidad Cristiana Bethel). Other users have been Indian Trails Missions, which was authorized to use it as an office to assist immigrants applying for U.S. citizenship) and Living Waters Church, a Pentecostal church.Its 2001 National Register nomination states that it was created as a religious facility, but does not identify the name or the type of religious facility which built it. It further states that at the time of nomination it was in use as a church, again without identifying its name or denomination.It was deemed significant as an example of simplified Romanesque Revival style, and also for its use of brick as construction material. It was the only public building of brick construction in Casa Grande and one of only 13 brick buildings of any type; the others were residences or commercial buildings.
