[18] Bartram Trail can give the graduating seniors a choice of scholarships they can apply for, through the school, to get started with college.
[28] Bartram Trail is also named in Newsweek's annual list of the top 1,300 high schools in the United States.
[35] The office replied in May 2002 and agreed to let them own a piece of the World Trade Center debris as long as Springfield came to New York City and got it himself.
[34][35] The concept behind the sculpture, created by art teacher Robert Kirk,[34] was that the piece of World Trade Center debris was to be one-half of the letter "V" while the other half was to be made of pristine stainless steel.
"[35] The sculpture was unveiled in Bartram Trail's courtyard on September 11, 2002, one year after the attacks, with Florida Governor Jeb Bush attending the ceremony.
[36] For Super Bowl XXXIX, in 2005, Bartram Trail High School was selected by the National Football League as the practice facility for AFC champion New England Patriots.
[37][38] Bartram Trail was selected by the NFL because the World Golf Village was chosen as the New England Patriots lodging and the practice field had to be within twenty minutes of their hotel.
Bartram Trail was also selected because the school's location was remote with little traffic and interference and because the walk from the lockers to the field was short enough.
[42] Project Alaska Turf was funded by Bartram Trail, the Jacksonville Jaguars, ProGrass and the Grimes Companies.
[42] Since Utqiagvik (formerly known as Barrow), Alaska is above the Arctic Circle, grass doesn't grow there, resulting in their football field being made of dirt and gravel and causing injury to the players.
[44] The Bartram Trail community worked for a long period of time and managed to move the field from Florida to Alaska by trucks, boats, trains, and on airplanes with help from ten different companies.
[51] On November 6, 2002, three female students of Bartram Trail were arrested and charged for "a false report of bombing or arson against state-owned property", a second-degree felony.
[51] The Youth Resource Deputy had received anonymous tips and learned that they talked about the threat, wrote about it on the bathroom wall and got rid of the marker they had used.
[51] The students were sentenced to twenty-one days at a youth detention center while evaluations took place and after they were released they had to remain under curfew and other restrictions until the case was finished.
"[54] On April 18, 2007, the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office arrested a fourteen-year-old student of Bartram Trail after he had posted an e-mail to a friend stating he wanted to conduct a mass school shooting.
[55][56][57] The e-mail stated that he planned to top the Virginia Tech massacre of thirty-three deaths by killing a hundred students.
[55][56] In May 2021, WJXT reported on the alteration of multiple yearbook photos by a local administrator, in accordance with dress code and modesty standards, by photoshopping the pictures of female students without their consent before publication.
[58] In the opening monologue on his late night TV show, comedian Jimmy Kimmel jokingly said that "it's like they put the Taliban in charge of the yearbook committee" and "that's it's nice to know there are still heroes out there protecting our kids from all this sinful V-neckery".
[64] Andrea K. McDaniels, deputy editor of The Baltimore Sun, wrote of the incident that: "Their photos were altered in the high school yearbook to cover up cleavage in a ridiculous display of body shaming.
The cafeteria and media center are located within the main building, while the gymnasium and auditorium with a stage are attached on the south and north sides, respectively.
[66] The campus has walkways, student, faculty and visitor parking, a parent drop-off section, a bus loop, a football and track stadium, a baseball and softball field, tennis courts, general-use play fields, a stormwater treatment facility, water and sewer utilities and a wetland mitigation area.
