AKRON, Ohio-North High School opened to the public for an open house, highlighting the issues facing its 93-year-old building. Attendees saw significant problems, including leaks from a failing HVAC system and varying classroom temperatures. The older section lacks central air conditioning and relies on window units, which create drafty conditions in winter. Only one of the school’s boilers is operational, despite having a 25-year life expectancy. The event attracted students, alumni, and concerned citizens who discussed the upcoming levy that will affect the school’s future. Early voting begins on October 8, with Election Day set for November 5. North High School serves nearly 1,000 students in grades 9-12, along with two pre-K classrooms.
