Grades at Clovis South High School and Phillip V. Sanchez Intermediate School
The Clovis Unified School District has opened the doors to its brand new, state-of-the-art campus, the Terry P. Bradley Education Center, on Monday. This massive $600 million campus, located in Fresno, California, is designed to address the growing population in the area and alleviate overcrowding concerns.
The campus, initially serving about 1,000 students in grades 7 through 9, is a phased expansion project, with plans to eventually become a full K-12 campus. It boasts modern facilities such as academic buildings, a library, classrooms, and support facilities, with a 1,500-student capacity for the middle school portion (Philip V. Sanchez Intermediate School).
The opening of the Terry P. Bradley Education Center comes after a week of final construction steps. Crews worked tirelessly to prepare the space, with fences added to separate students from ongoing work. Inside the academic buildings, teachers like Natalie Navarro were making the final preparations, setting up their seating charts, and decorating their classrooms.
On the first day, Principal Sonia Torossian welcomed students over the intercom, referring to them as the Longhorns. Some parents, such as Sinsay Vongmany, accompanied their children to help them find their first class. Vongmany noted that the campus does not resemble a traditional high school.
The opening day also marked Back-to-School night, where parents were invited on campus to familiarize themselves with the new space. There was an option to purchase official Longhorn spirit wear, and food trucks were available. Branding was added to the campus to increase school spirit ahead of the first day.
The Terry P. Bradley Education Center represents one of the largest school projects in California to date and contrasts with declining enrollments in some Northern California districts, exemplifying the need for expanded educational capacity in the Central Valley. As the Longhorns embark on their educational journey, parents like Vongmany hope their children will be part of creating new traditions at the school.
Construction will continue at the Terry P. Bradley Education Center while school is in session. The campus, a response to the regional growth, aims to provide modern facilities and a conducive learning environment for the growing student population in the Clovis Unified School District.
