Whitehall Pre-K reopens at new location
JACKSON, Tenn. — Whitehall Pre-K students headed back to school Wednesday at the former Nova Elementary School.
A hail storm damaged the roof at Whitehall Pre-K Center in December. It’s been closed ever since.
Some parents said the new location is more convenient. “I’m actually happy about that because I stay like right down the street, so it’s not a big deal,” Twila Carer, a parent, said. “Whitehall is further.”
“I love it,” Alisia Muhammad, a parent, said. “It seems a lot more spacious. Just a little bit far, but we’ll deal with it.”
Parents said they are happy to have kids back in class. “I’m excited,” Muhammad said. “He’s excited to come back to school. I love the school.”
A shuttle takes students from Whitehall Pre-K to Nova.
The district said it hopes to get the roof repaired at Whitehall and move back in this summer.
