Cleveland High opens for 2009-2010 Season

The new Cleveland High School succeeded in opening for the 2009-2010 school season. It is truly a beautiful facility. However, there are still quite number of hiccups to get thru. The performing arts center is not completed and the band & choir students are having to use other rooms on site. No music stands are available and the kids are using chairs to read music. The marching band has no practice field and are many weeks behind trying to get a half time performance ready not to mention their competition performance. The football & soccer teams are having to practice at the Rio Rancho Middle School. Many classrooms don't have books and a number of the Advanced Placement classes are filled to the brim with over 45 students. So Cleveland's brightest & best students are being put through some challenging situations. Yes, this facility is going to be amazing. In the meantime, it's not a complete school & Cleveland's first graduating class are suffering the consequences along with the rest of the underclassmen.
