After months of delays, the new Moncton High School is set to open later this month.

Once the exam period for the first semester is over, students will start classes for the second semester in the new school on Jan. 30.

The school cost $27 million and boasts 45 classrooms, moving walls, new lab equipment, and separate shop areas for students working in metal, woodworking and auto mechanic shops.

"It's been a long way getting to this point where the school is finally ready, so it's really exciting to see them and to see the staff and students when they walk through the door," said Gregg Ingersoll, the superintendent of Anglophone East School District.

"And the parents, when they come to see the building, it's really going to be exciting."

Student government members and the student grad committee got a sneak preview of their soon-to-be new home earlier this week.

On Wednesday, principal Mike BeLong offered the media a glimpse inside the new school.
