Mine was kinda ridiculous in retrospect. 16 buildings, for ~1600 students, not counting things like the snack stand at the football field. Actually fairly normal for the area. Even my elementary school has 9 real buildings plus 4 racks of portables.
Were all 16 single-floor? Were they things like portables?
All real permanent buildings. About half were 2 story, the rest one story. My loose understanding is that when the county set aside land for schools it was basically worthless so the schools got large footprints. The weather in the area was generally good so they save money by making campuses of smallish buildings instead of one big expensive building.
