Messalonskee closes for another day as workers clear large snow buildup off roof
Morning Sentinel, March 7, 2008
(excerpt) Messalonskee High School teachers and students on Thursday got to stay home for a second straight day even though the sky was bright and the temperatures warm.
This time, the issue was snow removal -- namely shoveling five feet of snow off the back side of the high school.
"I have a 10-man crew up there this morning," School Administrative District 47 Superintendent James C. Morse Sr. said, "and they are shoveling to beat all."
Morse said the shoveling was a pre-emptive move, not an emergency response to falling ceiling tiles or any other sign of roof collapse or leakage, an issue that has become increasingly more common among school buildings in Maine this winter.
