Groundbreaking for a New WDC School

This year's graduating seniors at Wadena-Deer Creek High School were given bricks from the old high school during a ground breaking ceremony for a new school Friday. 

The old school, which wasn't very old, was destroyed by a tornado June 17th last year. 

Students, politicians and residents gathered for the first shovel full of earth to mark the beginning of the construction for the new $38 million facility.  The new school is said to be set for students for the fall of 2012.

The school district serves students from Bluffton, Deer Creek and Wadena.
