Originally simply "High School #9," the campus includes one primary academic building, a separate security residence, an observation tower overlooking the large student parking lot, and the athletic stadium complex. (The stadium does not currently bear a specific name.) Located on Graduation Drive, the school is within the Dominion Valley subdivision. The academic facility ("the school") is approximately in size, is located on a site, and was designed by Moseley Architects, formerly Moseley Wilkins, and Wood. Construction took place beginning in March 2002, with the facility opening on 19 August 2004. Battlefield High School shares a common design with C. D. Hylton High School, Forest Park High School, and Freedom High School. This "class" of high school designs has been retired as of 2011.
