Robinson sits in the southwest sector of Cabarrus County, one mile (1.6 km) northeast of Lowe's Motor Speedway. Designed by Yates-Chreitzberg-Hughes Architects, The single-floor school is constructed around two central courtyards that can only be accessed from the interior of the school. At over 270,000 square feet (25,000 m2), it is the largest school building in the county and one of the largest Public buildings in the county. Robinson is locally characteristic for its distinctive architecture, 20-foot (6 m) wide hallways, and massive commons areas near the front of the school.
David S. Wright Auditorium, named for Robinson's first principal, hosts numerous functions throughout the year including concerts by high school and college groups and assemblies for community groups such as churches. Due to its large size, the school system often uses it for meetings for large numbers of staff members.
Athletic facilities located on the campus include Bulldog Stadium (football, soccer, and athletics), a large gymnasium (basketball, volleyball, wrestling) and adjoining practice gymnasium, tennis courts, and a baseball/softball complex.

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:
“I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
