Atkinson Elementary school has new 'digs' starting Tuesday.
Due to flooding at their regular location, they will meet - in their entirety - at the Boys & Girls Club of Henderson County until repairs - currently underway - are made in their school, caused by Hurricane Helene.
These arrangements are courtesy of the Fazio Family, who established the Club a number of years ago at 1304 Ashe Street, easily accessed from 7th Avenue East and North Main Street.
Superiintendent Mark Garrett indicated this will be a safe environment allowing the Atkinson school family to stay together while repairs are being made, which he says the goal for that completion by the school's winter break.
Atkinson Elementary features principal Mark Page and assistant principal Andi Marshall.
