Enfield High School - Enfield High School Complex

Enfield High School Complex

Enfield High School is locationed on hill off the Connecticut River. On a clear winter day, the Appalachian Mountains can be seen from the campus. Reminiscent of the Cold War, the facility's structure was constructed with concrete slab supported with outside supporting buttressing columns. The structure contains a bomb shelter that can be accessed through "The Tunnel" located in the basement level of A and B Buildings as the boiler room's pipe tunnels were designed to serve as bomb shelters. Enfield High School is currently organized as a ‘L’ shaped building, consisting of four primary sections or “wings” of the school, with each wing containing distinct and specific program.

• "A Building" is the main academic building. This building holds four floors of classrooms which includes computer labs, administrative offices, and the school store, "Raider Territory." In 2005 2,730 square feet (254 m2) of heavy renovation and 6,624 square feet (615.4 m2) of light renovation created 12 new classrooms in A Building as part of the library expansion project of 2005.

• "B Building" consists of additional computer labs, lecture rooms, and the Library Media Center. These amenities were added to the school in 2005 as a 20,000-square-foot (1,900 m2), $6.2 multi million dollar addition. B Building also houses B-corridor, a connecting hallway between A Building and C Concourse, original to the building.

The library was previously located on the third floor of Enfield High School's A-Building.

• EHS's gymnasium is located off B corridor, which houses the Athletic Heritage Hall. Stairs off the corridor lead down to the basement level where the gym and locker rooms are located.

• "C Concourse" houses the Student Center (cafeteria), music classrooms, the auditorium, and the Graphic Arts Department. These areas can be found off C Concourse, its connecting corridor.

• "D Building" is designated as a wing connected to C Concourse that can be accessed through a connecting vestibule where a staircase and a handicap accessible ramp are located. The building contains the Science Department, the Technology Education Department, and the Art Department.

The Enfield High School Campus consists of an outdoor congregating area outside of C Concourse, the "Walk-of-Fame" located in front of the flag pole outside of the D Building, six tennis courts located at the main gate, and athletic fields (some with artificial turf) which were renovated in 2008. The athletic complex is located down the hill off the Connecticut River.
