Portable classrooms moving off high school
Tractor trailers loaded up old portable classrooms at Paso Robles High School this week. The school district is moving seven buildings and plans to have them all off campus this week.
The portables are no longer needed at the high school because of the completion of Measure T projects that eliminated the need for them, and to make room to expand the parking lot.
“The portable buildings were originally brought in during the early 1990s to address the rapid growth of the district during that time,” says Ashley Lightfoot, public information officer for Paso Robles Public Schools. “They were taken out of use and surplused when we completed the 20-classroom 1000 Building, but we used them as a temporary classroom area while we were modernizing the 300, 400, and 500 buildings, which we completed last year,” he said.
The portable classrooms were sold to another school district, Lightfoot said.
