Work Begins on Replacing DCHS Gym Floor

By the time school starts late this summer, DCHS should have a new gym floor.
Workers began removing the existing gym floor Tuesday. Once the old floor is taken up, a new one will be put down.
Praters Flooring of Chattanooga was awarded the bid to do the work on May 19th at a price of $153,480.
The Board of Education recently voted to authorize Director of Schools Patrick Cripps to take action after discovering that the gym floor was infested with termites which had caused damage.
Although it had been refinished several times over the years, the gym floor had never been replaced since its original install when the school was built in 1963.
