The building provides students in grades 5 through 8 a learning environment that was specifically designed for their age level. Each grade has its own academic wing. Large classrooms are fully wired for Internet, telecommunications, and video. The school’s designers put the state-of-the-art facilities for music, art and athletics far away from the quieter academic areas. The beautiful and bright library is also fully wired for the enhanced use of technology.
The large "cafetorium," called Parkview Commons (in honor of the first school that occupied the site), serves as the school cafeteria. Round tables enhance socialization and students can get a view of Cahoon Park across the street and Lake Erie beyond the park. Students can also dine out on the patio underneath a portico of arches outside. Parkview Commons has performance stage with a state-of-the-art light and sound system which is used when the area is set up as an auditorium.
In partnership with the City of Bay Village, the school houses a second community gymnasium, in addition to the main school gymnasium, which has more than doubled the amount of gym space available for community recreation activities, as well as adding additional fitness center space.
The building also uses geothermal heating and cooling technology for a cleaner and more cost effective system of heating and cooling year-round.
