Evergreen High School

Bassetti Architects provided these visual renderings of the Evergreen High School design in May 2023.

The site plan (100% schematic design phase), provided by Bassetti Architects, showed the new school would be constructed in the northeast corner of the existing site. The new facility would be two buildings connected by an enclosed bridge walkway. This design allowed construction to span an existing sewer easement without disruption. The location allowed students to continue attending school in the existing buildings during construction. 

Once the new school opened in fall 2025, demolition of the old buildings occurred and construction of the new softball field (southwest corner) and baseball field (east of the new softball field) were completed by summer 2026.

Construction included new tennis courts and a bus loop in the southeast corner of the site.  The existing pool facility remained in place and was not part of this school construction bond.

The existing synthetic turf football/soccer field and the track remained in place as they were recent upgrades.

Two parking areas and a student drop-off lane were incorporated west of the new school facility, with entrance and exit lanes to SW 116th Street and 10th Avenue SW.

The construction of the new school was completed prior to the demolition of the old school buildings, enabling students to continue attending school on site until the new facility opened in fall 2025. The construction project happened in phases. 

The original Evergreen High School opened in 1955 during a spike in student enrollment in the school district. The campus had 10 buildings and was rated in poor condition, which was normal for its age and building materials. Here are photos depicting its condition prior to passing the 2022 school construction bond.
