Findlay High School students returning to school today will notice several updates. The Courier reports the school updated the floors, walls, piping, and fixtures in the four main restrooms. The upgrades replace pipes that dated back to 1962. The district also replaced the main water line into the school. It burst one day last November, forcing the school to close.

The most noticeable changes will be in the gym. The school installed a new “floating floor” and new bleachers over the summer. Director of operations Dennis McPheron says the floor isn’t nailed into the concrete base. He adds that’s standard for new high school gyms.

At Millstream Career Center, two new classrooms are under construction above the auto shop area. McPheron says they’ll finish construction in September.
