Students “really led the way” in taking care of the facility, he added, often being the first to criticize those who attempted any vandalism or mischief. “They worked hard to bring everybody together.” “I have to tip my hat to the building administration,” Costello said as he stood on the “Wolfpack” seal in the floor where students and visitors first enter. The question was, after going through that crucible,would the students take advantage - and care - of the “palace.” As the school prepares to start its second year, Superintendent Brian Costello and building administrators insist the answer is a resounding “yes.” “We are giving students the keys to an academic palace.” Administrator Patrick Peters summed up the reactions.
Yet when Luzerne County’s newest high school opened doors to the public, even long-time critics conceded that the building impressed, with college-like collaboration rooms, recording systems in band and chorus rooms, a gym big enough to host multiple events at once and stage doors large enough to drive a vehicle through. Merging three rival high schools took years of work for Wilkes-Barre Area School District: unifying athletics, splitting Coughlin High School into two locations, and radically redrawing plans that went from merging two schools in one location to merging three at a site miles away.
