This new high school is planned to provide for an optimum capacity of 400 students, with core facilities designed to support a population of 600.
The design will contain about 20 generic classrooms including additional science, language and computer labs to support the required instructional programs.
A publicly accessible library/media center will act as a community-wide information and learning center. A major commons area will function as the school dining hall and will be able to seat half of the student body at each lunch period. A gymnasium supported by athletic and physical-education dressing areas also is included. Music, drama and art programs will be enhanced by a formal auditorium and stage, which will serve as the cornerstone for the district’s fine-arts activities.
Future expansion of the new high school will be accomplished easily through the design of preplanned classroom expansion areas.
