LAKE CITY, Iowa (AP) – Students have resumed classes this week in Lake City after their high school was damaged by a tornado. The Messenger reports students of South Central Calhoun High School attended classes Monday at various locations, including churches, a public library and a bank.
The last day of school for everyone in the district is next Thursday. Principal Randy Martin said he’ll leave it up to the teachers to decide whether students would be given end-of-the-semester tests. An EF1 tornado on May 10 damaged the school’s roof, making the building unusable for the rest of the academic year.
