A peak enrollment of 19,823 students for Township District 214 occurred in 1976 after a total of eight high schools were built. At the time, four high schools existed in Arlington Heights: Arlington, Forest View, John Hersey, and St. Viator.

After facing a steep decline in enrollment, District 214 decided two high schools would have to be closed. A contentious debate followed, as each community wanted to keep their local high school open. Arlington, partly because it was considered the oldest and the most costly to update, was closed in 1984 with the District 214 student enrollment declining to 13,742. Forest View High School was closed in 1986 with the school district enrollment declining to 12,447.

The school mascot is The Cardinal.
The school colors were red and white.

The school newspaper was The Cardinal
(modernized to a local online newspaper)

The school yearbook was HEIGHTS
