Morenci Area Schools

Morenci Area Schools received notification this morning that the air samples from the asbestos abatement have passed! The elementary gym will be back in action on Tuesday morning. A big thank you to Nova Environmental and Trust Thermal for their work over the weekend!

Morenci Area Schools would like to dispel the rumors that the school yard was hit with vandalism over spring break. The alleged vandalism was done by Somerset Crane Service last Monday. Somerset was hired by Adrian Mechanical to set the rooftop units on the high school roof. After the lifts were completed, the crane and trucks had to be pulled out of the yard, thus tearing ruts into the yard. Adrian Mechanical has contracted with T & R Total Lawn Care, LLC to repair the yard and T & R will begin the repair once the weather cooperates.

The athletic boosters will meet tomorrow (4/11) at 6:00 p.m. in the high school cafeteria.
