When the Fire's Out: Learning from Adversity.
Holden, Tom
School Business Affairs, v63 n9 p30-33 Sep 1997
After a $7 million arson fire destroyed part of a Virginia Beach high school, about 1,200 students were temporarily relocated to a refurbished former mini-mall, and a 16-month recovery project was initiated. The new design improved library and art facilities. School officials have since learned to fight fire with simple precautions, such as installing an intrusion alarm system and hiring security guards.
