As FHN is preparing to go into the new building, many don’t know what change they’ll be walking into that first day. The typical three stairwells will be replaced with seven to eight to combat student traffic flow.
“We don’t know where the next butterfly hallway is gonna be at,” building principal Jeffrey Fletcher said. “In my brain right now, it’s the business cross hall, but I could be wrong.”
The official grand opening of the building will be on Aug. 24 during Black and Gold Day. Former students, recent graduates, and past alumni are invited to come and see the new building after the opening to the public occurs.
Some different procedures will come along for the next school year as adjustments are made for how students react to the new building. Things like where students will be able to hang out in the morning and tardy procedures can vary as the school year goes along.
“It’ll kinda be one of those structures, it’ll be how can we manage some of that stuff, supervise it,” Fletcher said. “Make sure we’re implementing it in an effective manner.”
