Two years after a tornado hit their small town and forced them out of their classrooms, students in Northwood are ready to dedicate a new school.
A special afternoon ceremony is scheduled for the new $13 million Northwood Public School, to be followed by a softball game between Northwood and Hatton. i Northwood students have been attending school in neighboring Hatton since the August 2007 tornado that killed one man and injured 18.
Along with the school dedication, the rebuilt community of about 950 is celebrating its 125th anniversary.
