The
Interlake High School project consisted of site preparation, parking
improvements and the remodeling of the technology and horticulture buildings as
well as the centered special education facility. 86,000 SF of the existing
school was demolished and replaced with a two story modernized facility,
connected by interior corridors to the gymnasium, a new 377 seat performing
arts center and technology building, all surrounding a new central exterior
plaza.
The school has interactive white boards (Smart Boards)
and LCD projectors
in every instructional space. The school is both hard wired for data and has
full wireless capability as well. The wireless access enables the use of mobile
laptop computer labs to be used in every instructional space.
The
technology center will house the District Information Technology Center, a
program offered in conjunction with Microsoft which can provide students with
the opportunity to take certification tests in various Microsoft certified
programs. Interlake also hosts the District's Construction Trades program as
well.
The project began in the spring of 2003 and was substantially complete
in August, 2005.
