Both the Jr. High and the High School are on the same campus however if you are not familiar, it can be confusing to get between the two schools. Especially with the High School, it is important you follow the below directions to make sure you know where to park and which doors to use as all doors except for the entrances listed below will be locked.
There are two gyms inside the High School (Fieldhouse and Lower Gym). There is one gym at the Jr. High School.
Note: DO NOT rely on GPS to find the School Campus addresses; they may put you in the wrong location.
