A look inside
the new Newton North

Press cameras were finally allowed inside the largely completed Newton North High School as city and construction officials gave the media a tour Monday of the most expensive public school in state history. At left, from top, the main theater and auditorium, which will house 600 people; the unfinished indoor pool; and a view of the outdoor athletic field from the press box on the second floor of the building.
