More Progress @ North High

The DMPS facility staff reports continued progress at North High, going so far as to say that things are in "better shape" than what was anticipated when work began at the school yesterday.

Some of the progress made today includes:
  • All water has been pumped out from beneath the building with the exception of some small puddles.
  • Large fans will begin ventilating the basement of the school building tomorrow.
  • Electrical power is back on at the building.
  • All systems, such as telephones and computer networks, are fully operational.
  • Additional ventilating equipment will be placed in the school building tomorrow.
  • The school district's environmental consultant visited the school today to begin the air quality testing process.
  • A dehumidifier is placed in the library to protect the books from the current high humidity levels.
  • Additional cleanup is being done to the parking lots and sidewalks around the school.
  • Work may be underway as soon as this week on the lawns, athletic fields and other areas of the North High campus.
