small groups meet at the forum
The Third Community Forum on the High School Project was held Thursday, April 25 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. and on Saturday April 17, 2013 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the High School South Auditorium. Approximately 70 people attended the two events. The focus was an update on concepts, sites and costs along with information on the planned community survey. Small groups gave feedback on pros and cons of the concepts and what information they still need in order to make an informed decision on the project.
 
Tours: Student-led tours gave community members a firsthand look at the condition of the two high school buildings. Maintenance personnel were also on hand to answer any questions.
