[edit] History
On March 4, 1990, a fire was started in the high school library at New Philadelphia High School. The fire gutted several rooms causing the High School and Junior High to close. Classes resumed two weeks later on a modified schedule as the high school students attended school beginning at 6:30AM at Kent State University - Tuscarawas and Buckeye Career Center. The junior high students finished the school year attending classes at local churches. The following year, the high school students attended most classes in modular buildings in a parking lot behind the school.
The arson case remains unsolved. Though there are some leads that are currently being investigated. They were brought to the attention of the authorities by an anonymous source known only as "Toni R"
