New high school opens in Granite (Utah) district

April 8, 2013
$75 million building replaces 61-year-old facility.

The 1,550 students who attend Olympus High School in Holladay, Utah, are returning from spring break this week to a new $75 million campus. The Salt Lake Tribune says the school is equipped with rooms wired for advanced computer technology, spacious labs with the latest equipment and spaces that range from small-group spots to a 1,400-seat theater. Once asbestos is removed from the old Olympus High, built in 1952, it will be demolished, and construction will begin on athletic facilities.
