Chemistry teacher John Distel says he’s beyond impressed. Among the new building’s features are carbon filtration systems in all the science lab sinks to the electronic and openly visual entryways and 54-camera digital school security system.

Distel is among many who agree the local tax and matching state dollars spent on the new Ironton High School were worth every penny — and more.
