History
Park City High School was originally located at 1255 Park Avenue in Park City.[3] It was constructed in February 1928 at a cost of $200,000 (equivalent to $3.41 million in 2022)[4][5] and was a modified Collegiate Gothic style brick building with three levels.[6] The building was abandoned in 1981, when a new high school was constructed on Kearns Boulevard. The original building has since been restored and serves as the Park City Library and the Jim Santy auditorium, which hosts screenings during annual Sundance Film Festival and the Park City Film Series. The 1981 Kearns complex remains in service and has been partially updated by Salt Lake City based architectural firm VCBO. The current high school stands on a site of 35 acres (14 ha) and consists of three levels.

Building
Park City High School is a multi-level contemporary style complex. Since its renovation in 2008, the school has over 260,000 square feet (24,000 m2) of total floor area.[10] The building was primarily amended along at its front, including the school lunchroom, the primary classroom wings, and the administrative offices. The reconstruction resulted in improvements such as a more spacious floor plan and updated building specifications.
The classrooms mirror other Utah schools with large glass windows and integrated multimedia systems. According to VCBO, the renovation "results in the entire complex appearing as one cohesive facility."[10] The building holds a Silver Rating by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design standards.
