Heritage High School

The "Transformation"

Heritage High School opened its doors in 1972. Since then it has undergone several remodeling projects, with the largest, a $14.5 million "Transformation", completed this past school year. The remodel, completed in two phases over the course of two years, brought some major changes to the building.

The initial phase was completed during the spring and summer of 2005. Projects included the addition of viewable windows into every exterior classroom on all three floors, the addition of an auxiliary gym on the west side of the building, the addition of an all-weather track around the football field, and elimination of the brick wall near the pool area which allowed for a more open and viewable front entrance.

The second phase of the project, contracted to W.O. Danielson Construction Company, Ltd., took place during the 2005-06 school year with the majority of the work occurring over the summer. During the school year, crews worked after school and on weekends to add HVAC duct work, water sprinkers, a security system, tile flooring, and interior windows. They also added a Community Room on the first floor, installed a kiln room in the art department, updated student bathrooms on the third floor and began the rennovation of the west locker rooms and addition of the varsity locker rooms/coaches' office on the third floor.

The largest part of the project took place during the summer of 2006. Construction projects included: building large, integrated teacher offices on the second and third floors, remodeling all existing bathrooms, moving the library to the first floor and filling the existing space with an expanded main office and counseling office/Post Grad Center, replacing all hallway and PE lockers, moving the Personal Survival classroom to the third floor and the existing varsity locker room to its new location above the west locker room, adding a skylight to the main lobby, updating all existing ramps to meet ADA code, moving the Special Education offices and classroom to the west side of the first floor, remodeling the business labs, the business offices, and the foods classroom, and replacing all network and cable wiring throughout the building.
