Burlington district looks for site for new high school

Vermont city opts for new high school due to contamination

Vermont city opts for new high school due to contamination May 5, 2021 GMT BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) The Burlington School Board has decided to pursue building a new high school due to chemical contamination found in the existing school. The school board in Vermont’s largest city voted unanimously Tuesday to end efforts to remediate the existing building and instead construct a new school though the location has not yet been determined, WCAX-TV reported. The contamination prompted school officials to close the school last year. Initially, students were educated from home. In March, the school moved into an empty Macy’s department store, which is now known as the Downtown Burlington High School.

Cool But Weird Macy s Store Transformed Into A School

/ ListenUpYall.com Apr 9, 2021 8:22 AM BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) Students who once shopped at a downtown mall in Burlington, Vermont, are now attending high school in the former Macy’s department store, with gleaming white tile floors and escalators whisking them to and from classes. The Downtown Burlington High School opened March 4, about six months after school administrators closed the existing school, just under 2 miles away, because toxic industrial chemicals known as PCBs were found in the building and soil during renovations. That left students stuck at home learning remotely for much of the school year during the coronavirus pandemic. As school officials looked for space where students could attend school in-person, they eventually eyed the empty department store, which closed in 2018. They talked with architects and learned it was a possibility, said Superintendent Tom Flanagan.
