Park View High School opened in 1976 and served the entire Sterling Park and Sugarland areas. When Richard Bonieskie opened Park View, it offered state of the art facilities, including a large auditorium and a two-level library, which gave the school the nickname "University of Park View" during the years following its opening.

As eastern Loudoun County began to experience high growth in the 1980s and 1990s, a considerable portion of its student body was fed into Potomac Falls High School, which opened in 1997. In 2003, more of Park View's student body were fed not only into Potomac Falls, but also into Dominion High School, which opened that year.

Park View was extensively renovated between 2002 and 2004. The renovations included moving the library to the first floor, expanding it, adding classrooms on the second floor, reconstructing the main offices and guidance offices, the senior courtyard, and constructing a foyer on the front of the building. In 2005, the auditorium was also renovated and features new seats, a new curtain, and new theater systems. In 2017, furniture and charging stations were added around the school.

In 2014, three students of the graduating class of 2014 vandalized the school as their senior prank. School officials could not identify who the students were due to the students wearing masks. The graffiti contained explicit images and profane language, as claimed by the officials. The incident divided the student body in addition to angering the parents and school faculties.

In 2015, Park View student Danny Centeno-Miranda was shot and killed while on his way to school. Three people were caught and charged with crimes after the murder.

In 2018, a controversy arose after Park View received a donation from the Redskins to build a turf field. Backlash arose after the school's football program was canceled after lack of participation from students and alleged absence of funds. LCPS stated that coaches and directors were working hard towards creating a new schedule that better fits Park View's level of competitiveness. Due to the negative responses from the community, Hilarie Burton (Park View alumna) donated to the school in hopes of restoring the football programming in the following year.

In September and October 2023, nine students at the school overdosed on fentanyl. Four of the overdoses took place on school property with medical personnel administering naloxone in three cases and CPR twice. The high school principal and Loudoun County School officials delayed informing parents of the overdoses for almost three weeks, prompting Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin to issue an executive order mandating public schools notify parents of overdoses within 24 hours.
