That sounds like plenty of space for a high school.

They can use trailers for overflow while construction is going on.[/quote]

No, it sounds like tons of amenities for a high school.

It doesn’t address the actual capacity or how much classroom space there is.

What amenities? The only thing it has that other schools don't have is a pool. It's not like they're going to keep the dining room and three gyms. They will repurpose those into classrooms.[/quote]

Wrong.  There are a lot of special-purpose spaces and equipment (which conveyed) that typical high schools don’t have.  And “repurpose” is an interesting word for the modifications that will be required for more classroom space. You can’t just snap your fingers and turn a gym into classrooms.
