CALGARY – The Calgary Board of Education says cleaning and repair work is well underway at a local school badly damaged by a fire.
Willow Park School suffered extensive damage in an October blaze which forced students to move to Viscount Bennett until the site has been repaired.
Preliminary evidence led fire investigators to believe the fire was suspicious, and forced them to call in the Arson Unit.
Almost two months later, officials say crews are working to install light fixtures and lockers in the school, and fix up flooring.
Workers are attempting to clean up furniture and upholstery, and restore murals and other artwork and woodwork in the building.
Finally, officials say duct cleaning and sealing is complete, and permits for ceiling tile replacement are pending.
Despite the progress, It’s still not known when students will be able to return to Willow Park.
