Carson-Long Beach high school briefing set
Work is scheduled to begin later this month on a high school for Carson students at the site of a Long Beach warehouse once used to store rubber and produce above-ground pools and spas.
While the school has yet to win plaudits from neighbors or the two cities, it would reduce crowding at maxed-out Carson High and Banning High in Wilmington.
At a community meeting scheduled Wednesday, district planners will discuss demolition of the 330,000-square-foot building at Carson Street and Santa Fe Avenue.
A high school with 67 classrooms and a sports stadium with 1,500 seats would be built at the 14-acre site. The district would open the doors to 1,900 students in fall 2012.
