Project address:
26600 S.E. 15th St., Camas

Start of construction: Oct. 18, 2001

Expected completion date:
August 2003

Owner:
Camas School District No. 117


Description
A study conducted in 1998 showed that the existing Camas High School, with its optimum capacity of 850 students, does not have the capacity to handle a surge in high school enrollment projected in the near future.

The new Camas High School will accommodate 1,400 students in grades 9 through 12; the design will allow for future growth up to 1,600 students.

The new 215,000-square-foot facility sits on 52-acre site and has academic, arts and athletic wings around a central commons area. There is also a 300-seat performing arts center.
