Drainage problems lets water seep into GHS gym
No permanent damage, but leaders are concerned about flooring long term
Placeholder Image
Gainesville High School’s gymnasium sustained damage when a rainstorm led to water from a neighboring property flowing into the building. A rush of water, suspected to have come from the adjacent Joyland Child Development Center, was too much for the school’s drainage system to handle. It seeped through the door and walls of the gym, running underneath the basketball court floor and throughout the building.
