Summer Brings changes to the Mount

       Besides the pleasant break from the classroom routine that marks summer vacations, it also frequently marks a time for changes and renovations for the school. This summer is no different.

       Among the changes is the addition of air conditioning to the kitchen and the dining rooms. These areas were selected for air conditioning because they are two areas that are used year-around. Window air conditioners are also being added to the classrooms that were without.

       After Camp St. John concludes at the end of July a flurry of activity will take place to put new carpet in the student union and freshman dorm. In the gymnasium the old bleachers are being removed and replaced with contiguous bleachers that will not have “section” breaks. This should give the gym a facelift and add more capacity.

      Less glamorous than other renovations but certainly important is a new water heater for the school.

      Last among the renovations is the addition of more computers & projectors in the classrooms.

      Come the middle of August everything should be ready to welcome back the faculty and students to an upgraded and improved Mount.
