The transformation and expansion of the Arlington High School campus will continue next year and beyond with the addition of softball and football field houses.

A state-of-the-art, $8.5 million football field house is part of the plans. The schedule improvements are the latest upgrade in facilities at the northeast Shelby County suburb’s athletic complex.

“It looks like something off a college campus, so for us to have it here is just really exciting,” AHS Principal Chris Davis said.
