Facilities

Classes were first held in 1971 behind city hall on SW 90th Avenue. The original buildings on Stirling Road were completed in time for the 1972 school year. Over time, Building 1, the main academic building, started to deteriorate with roof leaks, inefficient air conditioning units and water intrusion. A new 36-classroom building opened during the 2007–2008 school year. This building was followed by a new cafeteria which opened in May during the 2009–2010 school year. An entirely new building to replace Building 1 started construction during the 2012–2013 school year and opened in November of the 2013–2014 school year, complete with new general purpose classrooms, a science wing, a new childcare building, business labs, an automotive facility, and new offices. Building 1 was demolished and was now two grass fields, one of which was used for student parking.

Sound of Pride

Шаблон:Multiple issues The marching band, known as the Sound of Pride, attended various competitions, parades, and community events. In recent years, the program had prepared two field shows: one with simpler drill, more popular music, and sometimes dancing for the football game crowd as well as a competition or "comp" show, which had complicated drill with music and movements that help to convey the theme being portrayed by the performers (otherwise known as a "corps-style" show).

The program had marched in several parades, some of which include: 1991 when the band marched in the Channel 6 Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parade, 1992 when the band marched in the 58th annual King Orange Jamboree Parade, 1997 when the band first went to the London New Year's Day Parade, and 2015 when the band marched in the Davie Orange Blossom Parade. In 2016, the band participated in the Allstate Sugar Bowl band competition, parade, and halftime show in New Orleans. They won the competition, sweeping all captions.Шаблон:Citation needed.
