The school is the successor to the previous Marana High School (built in 1953), which became the current Marana Middle School.[3][4] Since 1975, numerous additional buildings have been constructed around the campus. These include the newest gym, named the Patton Gym in honor of Coach Norman Patton, who coached the Tigers' basketball team in the 1960s and 70s, and the Wade McLean Swimming Pool, named after the former superintendent of MUSD.[5][6] Many other facilities have also been added, such as a greenhouse, external welding shops, and portable classroom buildings, all branching off from the main school.[citation needed]
