The crews continue to make speedy progress on the demolition of the high school. On May 18, the cafeteria and kitchen were exposed to the elements when the roof and most of the walls were removed. The first image looks through into the media center, where debris has been piled to be sorted and discarded once demolition starts in that area. The second image shows the south wall of the cafeteria. The third image shows what remains of the kitchen. The boiler room beneath the cafeteria can also be seen in this photo.

A mound of discarded items await demolition and clean up in the media center. The pile includes everything from ceiling tiles to a utility sink to a crutch. Many items, including all metal, will be recycled.

Music room comes down

The music room was also demolished by May 16.  In the renovated high school, the music rooms will share a closer relationship with the PAT, which will greatly benefit band students.

The photos here show the "before" and "after" the demolishing crew hit the former woodshop. Windows and frames were removed before the wrecker came in. The wood shop was down by the end of the day on May 14.
