Soundside High School

Santa Rosa County, Florida
DAG Architects has designed the first new high school for Santa Rosa County in 25 years to meet the needs of its growing student population. Slated for completion in Spring of 2026, the $110 million facility will accommodate 1,800 students in grades nine through twelve with a modern and thoughtful design. The interior and exterior materials and color palettes create a coastal, collegiate character for the campus.

This three-story high school will feature 74 classrooms, CTE (Career and Technical Education) labs, a gymnasium building, a sports fieldhouse, and various athletic fields including a synthetic turf multi-sport field. The design team maximized the 35-acre site, by designing a 3-story high school with a central interior courtyard that provides a secure outdoor gathering area for the students. DAG provided a cohesive campus design down to the school mascot and school colors, which are incorporated into the sports facilities. The design prioritizes safety with secure entry points, including badge-access doors and restricted public access areas once the school is operational.
