Building Layout
The high school consists of three buildings connected by bridges on the upper floors. "A" and "B" buildings have two floors, and "C" building has three.
"A," the original school built in 1926, is rectangular and has an inner courtyard framed by three classical arches. Student and community events are held in the courtyard, and students eat there during good weather. Classrooms in this section were recently refurbished with refinished hardwood floors, new lighting, and a new HVAC system. Language, mathematics and other academic subjects are taught here. "A" also contains the auditorium and the smaller of the school's two gyms.
"B," the smallest section, includes the cafeteria, the wrestling room, and the larger of the school's two gyms.
"C" was added in the 1970s and is home to the science department where labs were recently refurbished. The music department, including band and choir rooms, is on the lower floor. "C" also contains academic classrooms, a home economics room, a wood shop, and the library.

Famous quotes containing the word building:
“The rage for road building is beneficent for America, where vast distance is so main a consideration in our domestic politics and trade, inasmuch as the great political promise of the invention is to hold the Union staunch, whose days already seem numbered by the mere inconvenience of transporting representatives, judges and officers across such tedious distances of land and water.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
