Greensboro neighbors and leaders discuss Erwin Montessori future [Video]

The school was badly damaged in the 2018 Greensboro tornado. Now, leaders and community members want to find a way to give it new life.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Six years after an awful tornado hit Greensboro, leaders are still sorting out what to do with the damaged buildings. One of the most pressing matters: the long-time vacant Erwin Montessori School.

The building was so badly damaged that the school district sold it to the county. WFMY News 2’s Nixon Norman learned what that site could become.

Project manager of the site said the school will be demolished by the end of next Spring. As for what will take it’s place, well, that’s still up in the air and literally up to the community.

Neighbors, nearby mosque members and local leaders gathered to talk about what could take the old school’s place.

Right now, it looks like an overgrown mess with broken and boarded up windows.
