Booker T. Washington Magnet High School
Montgomery, Alabama
The new 102,000 square-foot Booker T. Washington High School for Performing Arts in Montgomery, Alabama has opened for the 2023 school year. A ribbon cutting ceremony was held on August 8th, with classes beginning two days later. This project relocated the former B.T.W. H.S. from its downtown campus, which was destroyed by fire. The new Performance Arts wing boasts a black box theater with professional soundboards and lighting equipment, rehearsal studios, dressing rooms, a mock courtroom, offices for administration, and reception. Other new additions to the campus are the stand-alone cafeteria and gymnasium buildings. To complete the project, the former Holy Cross School, which once occupied the site, was renovated and repurposed into a wing for core curriculum learning.
