In August 2023, Melissa High School opened a new $35 million football stadium and indoor practice facility. Despite the fact that the school only had about 1,300 students at the time of completion, Coach Kenny Deel Stadium seats about 10,000 people. The stadium also features common areas, luxury suites, concessions, restrooms, locker rooms, and eight academic classrooms. The five-story press box at the stadium features two VIP rooms, five sky perches, and a large common space for activities such as communication construction.[6][7]
