ROGERSVILLE At many of its meetings during the past year, West Greene School Board addressed issues regarding the design and construction of the retaining wall that was being built as part of the new elementary school project.
Its concerns were apparently warranted.
The wall, which runs behind the new elementary center, partially collapsed last Thursday night, district Superintendent Thelma Szarell said.
The district noticed cracks and separations in the wall for the last several weeks, she said.
The board met last Thursday night partly to discuss the matter with representatives of the project architect, The Hayes Design Group, and the construction manager, URS Corp., she said.
Sometime through the night, it collapsed, she said.
The district is now trying to determine what caused the wall to collapse, Szarell said. It doesnt appear soil behind the wall moved, which was one of the districts earlier concerns, but the wall seems to have failed at its base, she said.
Engineers do not believe the wall will collapse any further.
It doesnt appear to be any danger to the new school, Szarell said.
The new three-story elementary center was constructed in an area that required excavation of a large hillside. According to an early design drawing, the wall stretches 761 feet behind the new building and at its highest point reaches 31 feet.

A section of Interstate 70 where a retaining wall collapsed at the base of a bridge last month will continue to be restricted to one-lane travel in each direction for some time, PennDOT officials said.
Officials said they need more time to assess what occurred and come up with a solution for that portion of highway in Rostraver.
We are continuing to work on a corrective plan, agency spokeswoman Valerie Petersen said.
There is no time estimate, she added.
Workers for Beech Construction of Carnegie were working on the bridge when the retaining wall came free on Oct. 14, resulting in a shutdown of the interstate, PennDOT officials said.
The next morning, travel was restored, with a single lane open in each direction on the eastbound side of the bridge between exits 44 and 43. That restriction remains in place.
Motorists near the lane changes this week said they hope the stretch can return to normal soon, but they understand the work can take time.
If that's what it's takes, then that's how long it's going to take, said Scott McClintock of Rostraver. I wish it wouldn't take too long.
Rick Stoioff of Donora said he felt the same way about Route 22 when work there lasted several years.
It was such a relief when it was done, Stoioff said. Everybody can't wait until it's done. I guess it's the price you pay for prosperity.
