Wright City High School Opens its Doors

Wright City’s new high school officially opened its doors to students in January! Spanning 122,000 sq ft, the core design principles focused on safety, collaboration, and growth.

The design team adopted a comprehensive approach to safety, incorporating an ICC 500-rated storm shelter, secure vestibule entry, and color-coded pathways to assist first responders during emergencies.

The vocational wing is dedicated to preparing students for their future, with STEM and Career and Technical Education (CTE) classrooms. The school also features a media center and versatile collaborative spaces, including modern library, focus rooms, and a student commons area with café.

The school is designed to grow alongside the local community. As the district's population increases, additional wings can be added to the school's structure to accommodate this growth.
