The new high school faeility for the CoppeH Independent School Distriet has been
designed to provide the Distriet an excellent edueational faeility that is in keeping with
the District's high standard of edueatienal quality. The building has been designed to be
funetienal in every way, while also serving as a source of pride to the School District and
the entire community.
The District's long-term needs have been carefully considered during the planning stage.
The 195,500 square foot facility will be designed to initially aceommodate approximately
1,200 students. However, basic facilities such as the Administrative area, Library, and
Dining and Student Commons area have been designed to aceommodate future growth in
excess of 2,500 students. A second classroom wing, bringing the total student eapaeity
to 2,000, has already been designed. An expansion to that enroUment figure will be
easily accomplished as student populations inerease.
When students move into the new facility in the fall of 1988, they will find a 600-seat
theater with a full working stage to compliment the District's already excellent Drama
program. The Band HAII~ with separate Choir facility, as well as two Art rooms, will
compliment the Fine Arts wing. The building has been designed to incorporate a Student
Commons area that will also serve as a Dining facility, and will provide an excellent
informal gathering place for school danees and other community functions. A large,
2,000-seat competitive Gymnasium will provide two separate praetiee floors for P.E. and
athletic use, and a full contingent of dressing room spaee is also provided.
All of these "common" spaces have been located within the building, so that use during
the evening hours is faeilitated. AH have ready access during the evening hours without
disturbing the academic portion of the building. The Library area does provide a focal
point for the aeademie wing. It is also designed for use by the public during evening
hours, but is located for easy access from all academic areas. Its size and design reflects
the District's commitment to a quality education.
The ela~room wing, which ineludes a full contingent of Science labs, Language labs,
Math, English and Social Studies ela~rooms, will provide space for a quality learning
environment. The applied arts wing, which includes Student Publications, Industrial Arts,
Drafting and Homemaking, completes the facilities that are planned for this fine
structure.
The new school will also include parking faeiHties and driveways to serve the new
structure, along with a baseball field, tennis courts, and praetice field areas to
eompUment the program. A football stadium, with permanent eonerete seating for
6,000, will be eonstructod with the bleachers located on earthen berms.
The total faeility has been designed to meet the Distriet's immediate needs for a
comprehensive high schooL while providing for the future as the District fully develops
this new high school facility on its 50-aere site.
