CLARIFICATION

A story in the Aug 21 edition requires clarification.

Basic High School opened in 1942 and was located at 240 Water St., where City Hall is today.

After World War II, the school closed and reopened in 1954 on Van Wagenen Street and Pacific Avenue.

In 1971, it was relocated to its current location, 400 N. Palo Verde Drive, and the old site was renamed Burkholder Middle High School.

Burkholder closed for reconstruction in 2003 and reopened in August.
