Barstow, California, in the heart of the Mohave Desert and
midway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The Barstow Community College District
was established in September 1959 by the citizens of the
upper High Desert region of San Bernardino County. Evening
classes began the next year at Barstow High School, followed
by the first day of classes in fall 1962 at Barstow First
Methodist Church. The campus was constructed in 1964 at its
current location on Barstow Road and first classes began in
February 1965. The college is in the midst of a construction
program with a state-of-the-art student services center
completed in 2009. To support its growing and successful
