Work Starting at Emerson High School

But will a boiler room be renovated to make way for a clinic for teenage moms at the school?

This view has dominated the crossroads between downtown and MidTown for more than 20 years.


I can’t remember a time when the rusted, ugly “temporary” classrooms didn’t litter the lawn of the otherwise grand, historic Emerson High School at NW 6 and Walker. It’s been a long wait, but they’re finally disappearing, hopefully for good!
Thanks to Jeff Bezdek for taking these photos as work started late last week, and sending them over to be posted here at OKC Central.

In about a year, Emerson will be transformed into a school the kids can be proud of – and thanks to Andrew Rice and Variety Care, the teen-age moms at the school will have the medical clinic they’ve long needed.
