N. Alexander School gets Tour visitors
Alumni and out-of-town visitors alike took time Saturday to tour the North Alexander School, talking over their memories of the old school and discussing plans to continue the restoration of the building. Members of the community have banded together to form the The North Alexander School Association (NASA) which had raised the funds to install a new slate roof, stabilizing the building and preserving it. NASA received a $200,000 challenge grant from an anonymous local family in 2006, allowing NASA to earn a matching dollar for every dollar raised up to the $200,000 before the end of 2009. To date, approximately $40,000 has been collected. This year the improvements have included an ongoing cleanup of the interior of the building, the restoration of 16 first floor windows, and much study on the future of the historic building.
