Building a New High School and Forging a New Community.

Krajewski, Robert

School Business Affairs, v54 n1 p28-30 Jan 1988

Two aging structures were replaced by Central High School in an Indiana steel town. Planning, board and administrator support, and community involvement eased negative attitudes toward the high school closures and resulted in a $36 million school that has unified the city and will serve it for over 50 years.
