On July 27th, 2023, we celebrated the much-anticipated opening of James A. Lawson High School with a ribbon cutting ceremony and tour.
At a new location on Highway 70 South, James Lawson High is a 307,000-square-foot facility designed to accommodate up to 1,600 students.
Sustainability was at the forefront of the design process, with a geothermal system to heat and cool the building, a solar array on top of the school, and a partial green roof visible from the third-floor level in front of the cafeteria.
