The majority of AHS students are happy with the new school
October 20, 2017
The town of Abington has just recently opened their new $96.5 million middle-high school for the 2017-2018 school year. This school caters to the needs of all students grades 5-12, along with pre-k. It took 21 months to build, and it was about a full year ahead of schedule. A survey of 70 students was taken not long ago on their opinions of the new middle-high school.
“Do you like the new school?”
Yay—87.14%
Nay—12.86%
