James Wood High School.

James Wood High School was originally constructed in 1980. It needed renovations and additions to achieve modern-day school standards. Renovations included reworking of the original site layout to provide improvements for the vehicular traffic patterns through the site, designated parking for visitors, a dedicated area for buses, faculty/student parking areas, a pick-up/drop-off lane, and stacking areas for cars.

The addition to the front of the existing building provided a more modern look to the campus, while still respecting the history of the community it serves. The new addition included house administration, a guidance and clinic suite, a new multi-media center, and a new central main entrance that opens to a student commons area. Adjacent to the new multi-media center, a learning stair leads down to the existing main and auxiliary gyms. A new kitchen addition and loading dock serve the new cafeteria dining area.

Interior renovations consisted of a redesign of existing classroom space on both levels that reprogrammed the creation of Learning Communities. The existing kitchen/cafeteria area was renovated to provide a new science area. Light renovations included new ceiling, wall, and floor finishes. All existing exterior windows and doors were removed/replaced.
