Adacao Elementary School is scheduled to open its doors in August. From the looks of it, the campus is just about done. The walls are fully painted, the parking lot is ready and the sign is up for the school. The collateral equipment is already on island and is being stored for now. GPSS superintendent Dr. Nerissa Bretania-Shafer says they're just waiting to receive the keys from the contractor.
As for the logistics, she expects them to be ready once those keys are turned over, saying, "We have identified all the faculty members and support staff. We have the principal and assistant principal and so we're just awaiting for the keys to be turned over to GPSS.
Former principal of Chief Brodie Memorial School Evangeline Chang will be the principal of the new elementary school. Several students are expected to be relocated from Juan M. Guerrero to Adacao, while some others will be transferred from Price Elementary to Adacao. Over 200 students will move from Finegayan to Juan M. Guerrero.
