Living the Vibrant Life at South High Senior Living
At South High Senior Living, it’s all about the Vibrant Life — being inspired, challenged, adventurous and connected every day. Through the Vibrant Life Calendar, residents have opportunities to get fit, learn new things, discover unexplored passions and have a ton of fun. Older adults here spend their days listening to visiting performers tickle the ivories in the piano lounge, getting their sweat on at exercise classes, gathering for beer tastings at happy hour socials and attending movie nights with their fellow residents. When they’re not busy with the activities calendar, seniors relax by tending to the community gardens, getting their hair done at the beauty salon and shooting pool with friends.
They also get out to explore Knoxville’s many natural and cultural gems, from the Knoxville Museum of Art and Market Square to the Ijams Nature Center and events at the University of Tennessee. Its convenient location places it just minutes from the shopping and dining of downtown Knoxville, plus top-flight healthcare facilities like Select Specialty Hospital – Knoxville and Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center.
South High Senior Living: Assisted Living and Memory Care in Knoxville
Housed in a beautifully restored historic building that used to be South High School, South High Senior Living is perfectly suited for residential use — the classrooms are now spacious, elegantly appointed apartments, and the cafeteria has transformed into a gorgeous dining room with hardwood floors and high-end touches. It’s here where residents come together to socialize and enjoy the Elevate Dining experience, which brings fresh flavors and scratch-made meals to the table. Some resident favorites include the Andouille-stuffed Pork Loin Medallion, Fried Soft-Shell Crabs and the Baked Apple Strudel.
Rates for assisted living include utilities, housekeeping, laundry, maintenance and 24-hour staff assistance with medication management and daily living tasks (bathing, grooming, dressing and more). The memory care program boasts the same services and adds extra highly trained caregivers and specialized programming for seniors with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

Is there any security keeping an eye on the place? The Tipton side looks empty most of the time and it makes me 🤔,how many people are watching them at night and the grounds for that matter?

Changes are hard for everyone, especially transitioning from independent living to living with assistance. When looking for the perfect place for our Nana, it was hard to find a place that could meet all of her needs and expectations as well as ours. We are so blessed to have found South High Senior Living! The experience starts the minute you walk in the first door. It feels nothing like any assisted living home I have ever been in. It''s the sensation of walking into a world of pampering, like a luxurious hotel but with the feeling of home. The staff is amazing, from the sweet smiles at the front desk, to the night ninjas who do laundry every night. The amazing cooking staff make the dining experience so great that Nana wants to eat there instead of going out! What makes it extra special is that the days are filled from morning to evening with activities by Ms. Tina! They can pick and choose what to do but everyone is included and made to feel special and loved. The environment is beautiful, and the rooms are gorgeous, and Nana feels at peace. She told us last week for the first time she doesn''t have a worry in the world! As a family, I can say we also feel that our worries are gone. We all feel good knowing she is in great hands with a staff who love and treat her like family. Thank you to our new South High family for taking care of us and making us feel right at home!
