Middle College High School (MCHS) at LA Southwest College is a result of the unique collaboration between the Los Angeles Unified School District, the Los Angeles Community College District and Southwest College with the goal of expanding the educational opportunities for the local community and providing a direct link to higher education for MCHS students. The high school shares Southwest College’s existing campus amenities such as outdoor playfields and large capacity lecture spaces. The new 52,000-SF facility includes classrooms, science labs, a library, multi-purpose space, indoor pool, food service area, and administrative spaces. The project achieves a high degree of sustainability and is pursuing LEED Platinum certification.
