WINTERSVILLE Indian Creek Local School District officials had planned to hold a groundbreaking in April for the new Indian Creek High School, but that event was canceled when schools were closed statewide because of the pandemic.
Instead, they gathered Wednesday to observe as two 24-foot-long steel beams that had been signed by hundreds of students and staff were lowered into place.
