When Bartlett City Schools inherited the Bartlett High School campus, which dates to 1885 when the school was founded, the district set out to improve the learning environment, address capacity, and inject a new identity into the lifeless buildings. This extensive renovation touches nearly every function and core space of the campus, including expanded classroom and instructional space, new administrative offices, expanded classroom and lab space for career and technical education, new fine arts classrooms, and renovated STEM classrooms. Enhancements to the school’s common spaces include a 2,500-seat competition gymnasium, a 700-seat cafeteria, and a 1,000-seat performance auditorium. New student commons, entry towers, and circulation routes connect all the buildings for the first time and improve accessibility in the school. New athletic spaces include basketball, volleyball, football, and wrestling locker rooms, weight rooms, and a wrestling practice room. Exterior improvements include a new main entry, a complete transformation and unification of the building facades, expanded parking, updates to the existing football stadium, and updated landscaping.
