Situated on a 15,000-square-meter campus with four street frontages and river access, the facility reserves 65% of its space for outdoor, green environments. Notable learning areas include specialized biology, chemistry, and physics laboratories, a Maker Space, dance studios, a culinary arts room, and a 16-seater transportation fleet.
