Peterson said. "What this
school means to me and
more importantly, what I
hope it will mean for my
fellow schoolmates, faculty
and community members
is that this school stands
for renewed opportunities
to make our traditions bet-
ter."
Members of the school
board stood at the entrance
as chairman Monk cut the
ribbon with an oversized
pair of scissors to let the
crowd tour the new facil-
ity. TCT West provided a
free barbecue for everyone
in attendance.
The oversized scissors
were missing following the
ribbon cutting, according
to school officials. If any-
one has information about
the location of the colossal
clippers, they are asked to
contact the district office at
548-2254 or drop them off
at the district office or the
school.
