Architecture

The New Indian Valley High School was brought about to address the existing over crowding issues at the current high school.

Areas of of the building have exposed ceilings to help bring a new modern edge and style to the school.

Primarily the building is made up of structural steel and CMUs, with a face brick facade. There are small glass enslosures around the fitness and cafeteria areas, with windowed ceilings in the library.
