John Barnes of Apex Engineering Co. and George Cross presented a final report to Barbers Hill School District trustees confirming the Barbers Hill Junior High School building remains safe for now and for at least five more years despite an underground diagonal fault.

Trustees weighed options including minor repairs for four to five years, jacking the high portion at an estimated 50 000 to 80 000 dollars, and permanent fixes costing well over 140 000 dollars.
