Two "pods" trailers are housed in the back of the campus; they each house seven classrooms each. There are also two gyms, an auditorium, cafeteria, courtyard, technology building, and an office building with a library.
Construction is ongoing on campus which will ultimaely change the entire school in some way. A two-story, "L" shaped building is currently under construction; it will house 10 classrooms, office facilities, as well as a new media center. The existing office building will be renovated, and will house the fine arts programs on campus.
