The school has also undergone an extensive renovation project in 2021 which included soundproofing and air conditioning for each classroom. It also implemented tighter security in the building and classrooms though implementations of bullet-proof doors. In April 2022, the new Stephen J. Squeri '77 Sports Complex was completed due to a special donation from alumni, and current American Express CEO, Steve Squeri. It is the first high school in the U.S. to have incorporate the Anatomage Table, which provides students and an immersive way to explore human anatomy
