P. J. Krouse designed schools across Meridian, including the large, red brick Meridian High School and the adjacent Ross Collins Career and Technical Center. The latter is a Streamline Moderne building constructed of incised concrete (with replacement windows). At the center of its five-part composition, the tower-like entrance features vertical fins, glass block, and a metal canopy. On the west side of the high school, the substantial Ray Stadium (1930s) is also a concrete construction, built with funding from the Federal Emergency Administration for Public Works (FEAPW).
