Anderson campus is designed to honor the past, excel in the present and provide pathways to the future through a strong vision of academic excellence, multiculturalism and community connectivity. The modernized campus combines elements of the reconstructed L.C. Anderson High School with the vibrancy and pride of the Eastside and International students, creating a new campus that is future-focused on early college and allied health career programs.
