Catawba Ridge High School
From anti-reflection to color tints, modern glass enhances design in many ways.
Whatever the construction challenge, we have the glass to help meet it.
See how the correct choice of glass can help transform a home – and even our wellbeing.

How and where glass is used
How glass is made and what it offers
The 75,000 square metres façade features a curtain wall that is double glazed to allow for a high solar protection on neutral-looking glass.
The new-build façades are predominately brick-faced, with punched windows to reflect the surrounding context.
Curved glass, punch windows and precast stone panels make up the envelope on a figure-of-eight footprint.

A new tradition of excellence
As South Carolina’s fastest-growing school district, Fort Mill added more than 1,000 students in a single year. To serve its increasing student body, the district needed to establish a third high school facility. In 2019, the new Catawba Ridge High School opened doors to hundreds of students. Building planners knew they wanted students to feel a sense of pride and connection in their new school, which includes a massive 412,418-square-foot primary structure replete with classrooms, labs and creative spaces, plus an athletics complex and outbuildings. SunGuard® SNX 62/27 on CrystalGray® glass provides a clean and neutral appearance to elevate and complement the largely brick and panel exterior, but that’s not all: SNX 62/27 is a triple-silver coating offering a high light-to-solar-heat-gain ratio. It provides strong energy-saving performance while delivering daylight that makes spaces feel comfortable and inviting – ideal for first impressions as students and educators begin a new tradition of excellence together.
