The Building
The structure consists of the Technical Building, Laboratory Annex, and Malone Hall. In the past the Roosevelt building and new gymnasium area was part of the high school, though now houses Roosevelt Elementary school.
In the summer of 2007 new windows were added to the entire building and security was increased with the addition of security cameras in every hallway. At the end of the 2007/08 school year the high school received new iMacs in every computer lab. In addition, projectors and touch sensitive white boards have been added to most classrooms.

Famous quotes containing the word building:
“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“And when discipline is concerned, the parent who has to make it to the end of an eighteen-hour day—who works at a job and then takes on a second shift with the kids every night—is much more likely to adopt the survivor’s motto: “If it works, I’ll use it.” From this perspective, dads who are even slightly less involved and emphasize firm limits or character- building might as well be talking a foreign language. They just don’t get it.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
