âItâs the people who were part of the building, and weâre excited to give them an opportunity to come in, meet with their friends, and enjoy seeing it,â she said.
She added: âIt gives people a chance to walk around and see what they remember from their high school years.â

âItâs really going to transform the whole district,â Burlington Area School District Spokeswoman Julie Thomas said.
Voters approved a referendum in November 2018 to authorize borrowing for the project to replace the existing Karcher Middle School, which is more than 90 years old.
Work began on the project in October 2019, and crews are on schedule to complete the new school in April of next year. The new school is being built adjacent to the existing middle school, 225 Robert St., which is set to be demolished.
