Smoky Mountain High School is a public high school located in Sylva, North Carolina. The school formed as a result of the consolidation of the former Sylva-Webster High School and Cullowhee High School in 1988, at the Sylva-Webster campus, which dates to 1960. Smoky Mountain High School is a part of the Jackson County School System. It is the only 9-12 high school in the county, the other schools with grades 9-12 are Blue Ridge School in Cashiers, North Carolina, a Kindergarten-12th grade school, and Jackson County Early College, with grades 9-13 on the Southwestern Community College Campus. ==Buildings on the SMHS campus== The buildings have different uses. A Building contains the cafeteria, commons, lobby, library, front office, guidance rooms, and many classrooms, as well as the former auditorium, now used as a chorus room. B Building houses many classrooms and the art room. The Gym/Band Building houses locker rooms as well as a gymnasium, band room, and storage/mechanical areas. It formerly housed the boiler for the school, the chimney for which still stands, although chimney swifts have taken up residence in it. C Building has the new science wing completed in 2006, as well as many classrooms. D and E Buildings house vocational shops. The buildings have gone through many renovations since three of them opened as Sylva-Webster High School in 1960, the A Building (1960) had the lobby, cafeteria, and front office completely redone in 2004, with many smaller additions dating to before that time; B Building (1960) is now attached to C Building (1989) through an addition constructed in 2006 with a ramp to join the two buildings on the slightly hillside campus. D Building (1978), originally on its own with a long covered walkway connecting it to the original A and B buildings, now sits between C Building and E Building, constructed in 2004. The Gym/Band Room Building (1960) had a new, larger band room built onto it in the 1970s and in 2004, the large, tall gym windows were replaced with brick and smaller windows. There are plans to add a new 754 seat auditorium and 1,508 seat gymnasium to the school. These plans have been the most successful attempt to add an auditorium in 40 years and to replace the aging gymnasium, which has stood since 1960. The plans also include a new chorus room for the school's award-winning Show Choir.〔http://blogs.southwesterncc.edu/sylvarotary/2011/06/02/2011-06-02-smoky-mountain-high-school-show-choir/〕 Despite opposition, the community has backed the project.〔http://www.thesylvaherald.com/html/officials_ok_design_phase_for_.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smoky Mountain High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
