July 2008 fire

On July 11–12, 2008, a fire destroyed one of the school's main buildings, which held the science lab, classrooms, the home economics area, and the library. [3] [4] [5] [6] Many classrooms, offices, the gymnasium, and a weight room were saved by firefighters from the Glide Volunteer Fire department and other nearby companies. [4] The school district was already replacing or rehabilitating some of the areas to have classrooms ready for the fall 2008 term, which began in September. [4] The fire was believed to be caused by a plumber's torch in a classroom of the main building. [3] [4]
