In August 2015, Highland High School built a new athletic complex. This complex includes a football stadium featuring a turf field, eight lane track, locker room facilities, multiple restroom facilities, multiple food vending facilities, a video scoreboard, and seating for 5,000 people, as well as tennis courts, and additional parking areas. The stadium was constructed on land that was being used as a practice field for the marching band, and the tennis courts were constructed west of the new stadium where a wooded area was previously. This project is projected to cost seven to eight million dollars with most of the funding coming from private sources. [4]
