Conner Street Elementary School to get new roof
HURRICANE, W.Va. -- Conner Street Elementary is in the process of getting a new roof though the weather has already snuck in and done some damage.
Conner's new principal Karen Fragale explained that preparation work for the roofing project required the removal of a layer of gravel covering a plastic barrier, which shrunk due to the sun and heat. The shrinkage was just enough to let rainwater seep in resulting in some minor damage in some areas of the school. The worst loss was in the computer lab where at least three computers destroyed.
This is not the first time water leaks have been an issue at the school. The $300,000 roof project expected to be completed in about a month, Fragale says.
