ABC 27's Maya Sargent got an inside look, Friday, at the behind-the-scenes work happening into the weekend to get the school prepared to be re-opened.
Crews worked on site all weekend to get the facility ready as quickly and safely as possible.
"To see a pond where a teacher would usually park, that's a bit daunting," said Principal Desmond Cole on Friday.
Cole said impacts to the school included over 70% of water damage to their campus and damage to some equipment.
