WORCESTER – With students and staff out of the building as of last Friday, the final few days for South High Community School are at hand.
From Monday until June 18, the school department will be stripping the Apricot Street facility of its remaining salvageable items, from tables and chairs to athletic trophies and other mementos.

At that point, the school system will officially be dependent on completion of the new South High, which is under construction just feet away from the old school, in time for the start of the new school year in late August.
