The Sweetwater Junior High School
project involved site modification, the addition of 4,386 square feet
of new space, and the renovation of 40,595 square feet of existing space.
In addition, new electrical and HVAC systems were provided. The original
building was built in the 1950s, with other additions having been made
in 1960, 1967, and 1972. The 7-8 grade facility houses approximately 270
students. Construction materials used include
masonry bearing and stud bearing walls. Interior walls are CMU or wood
stud, and exterior walls are CMU with brick veneer or structural metal
stud. The pitched roof is constructed of wood trusses with fiberglass
shingles. The Tennessee School Boards Association
presented the school with the School of the Year Award in 1999.
