The project
Howard High School is part of a combined middle- and high-school campus with centralized food-service facilities. Dunwody/Beeland designed the high school and collaborated with a local architectural partner on the adjacent middle school.
The facility developed from a district prototype, providing an efficient organizational framework with room for adaptation. Academic classrooms surround a central courtyard, giving the large program a clear center and bringing daylight into circulation and gathering spaces.
Dedicated wings accommodate vocational arts and ROTC instruction. A 600-seat auditorium, added late in the project, expanded the school’s role as a performance and community venue.
