Facilities
The present school building was created in 1958 and renovated in 1975 and 2006.

The school's central feature is a ramp that leads from the varsity gym up to the cafeteria. The school stands at 140,486 square feet (13,051.6 m2) and enrolls approximately 902 students.
In sports, the school rivals Smithsburg High School and Williamsport High School in Washington County.
