Facilities

The facilities at Corcoran High School consist of 71 classrooms, a library, four computer labs, an auditorium, two gymnasiums, a weight room, a pool and a state of the art outdoor athletic stadium.

Drama

The Corcoran Association of Student Theatre (commonly referred to as C.A.S.T.) is an extracurricular performing troupe run cooperatively by faculty advisors with the input of a student executive board. The Corcoran Association of Student Theatre prides itself as one of the only high school programs in Central New York to boast a full length theatre season, on par with the offerings of many local community and semi-pro theatres.
