Thunder Vista P-8 was built on a 13-acre site in Anthem Highlands, a planned community of about 2,600 residential units, located near state Highway 7 and Interstate 25, in the city and county of Broomfield. The school is expected to serve between 900 – 1,000 preschool through eighth-grade students and opened in Fall 2018.

The construction of the new school is possible thanks to voter support of a $350 million school construction bond in November 2016.
