Athletics

Renovation and additions

After undergoing recent renovations and additions, the school has undergone a complete overhaul. The campus formerly consisted of four buildings that are now joined entirely under one roof. Part of the renovation included the construction of a new, much-needed, $21 million gymnasium. Styled MCHS Arena, the facility comfortably seats 6,200. Theoretically, the gym will accommodate 7,000, standing room only, although such an arrangement must be cleared with the Kentucky State Fire Marshal prior to an event. The ample seating capacity allows Montgomery County High School to be considered for hosting the much-coveted 10th Region Boys' Basketball Tournament. In addition to classrooms, the new facilities also include an administration corridor, state-of-the-art media center with computer labs, landscaped courtyard and a cafeteria and food preparation area.
