Description

Wooster High School in Reno, built in 1962, is facing a potential downgrade from a $210 million rebuild to a $70-$80 million modernization due to enrollment drops, construction cost spikes, and economic slowdown. The school, with under 1,200 students in a building for 1,800, has leaky roofs, extreme temperatures, pests, and smells affecting learning. Teachers and students are advocating for a full rebuild, while officials consider repurposing the school or sharing space with a new admin building. The school board meets May 12th to decide, with the community and oversight committee pushing for a full rebuild.
