As students poured off the buses in front of T.C. Williams High School Tuesday, the site of the old TC coming down greeted them.

The new school building, which cost nearly $100 million, is a big step for the school system and the students as they look forward to a new year. There are three areas of concentration underlying the curriculum at T.C. this year, and that includes diversity, technology and the green features. The schools video production class is currently working on a video, highlighting the green features, which include a rooftop garden, a rain water cistern, and flushless toilets in the bathroom. I think this is going to be a catalyst for a lot of excitement in the schools city wide, Mayor Bill Euille said.
