School Notes:
  • Southridge High School, built in 1995, was the third 4A high school constructed in Kennewick, Washington, located at 3320 S. Union Loop Road. With the reorganization of leagues, Southridge became a 3A school, and is now a member of the Columbia Basin League. Lying in a valley on the southwest border of Kennewick, the natural terrain of the area acts as a wind amplifier, causing heavy winds to blow through the campus regularly.
  • Facilities: The school is divided into six main wings, labeled A through F. The B, C, and D-wings are dedicated to classrooms, each containing two floors with eight classrooms per floor as well as a multitude of lockers. The A-wing houses the auditorium, cafeteria, and the music rooms. The F-wing contains one large and two small gyms as well as a weight room - with locker rooms and training room both located downstairs. The E-wing contains the library and main offices.
  • The wings are all connected by a long crescent hall with A and F-wing at the north and south ends, respectively. The E-wing is in the inner curve, and wings B, C and D branch off along the outer curve, giving the school a unique resemblance to a giant, closed eye when viewed aerially.
  • The design of the school is rumored to be based on an existing design for a prison, giving the school the derogatory nickname "Prison High". Another variation on the prison themed nickname is "Southridge State Penitentiary".
  • General information: The school's mascot is the Suns. Football and soccer games are played at Neil F. Lampson Stadium, which is located on the grounds of Kennewick High School. Southridge shares the stadium with Kennewick and Kamiakin High School.
