White Mountain School As it Was...


The picture to the left was the White Mountain high school building. The stairs to the right lead up to the gymnasium. The school burned to the ground the morning of Feb. 15th, 2006.
As I woke up and looked out my front window and saw smoke coming from the roof at 5:40 am. Yikes. The building was soon engulfed in flames. due to the valiant efforts of the volunteer fire dept. the gym was saved and left intact.
By noon we were left with smoldering ruins.
Fortunately we were able to find alternative classrooms which will fit our needs until our new school is built.
The bulldozers have begun clearing trees and we should be in a new k-12 building sometime in the spring of 2008!

The picture to the right shows the elementary school which houses k-6. This building is still here and was a saving grace in that half of our student population could continue on as before. There are three classrooms downstairs on the main level with a library and small classroom upstairs in the attic.
