A Hopkinsville organization seeking to turn a historic high school into a community center has hit a setback after the building’s roof collapsed.

In 1967, Attucks was integrated and converted into a middle school in 1967 before it was ultimately closed in 1988. LaDessa Lewis, co-founder of Men 2 Be, said a storm had taken off a piece of the roof two years before the nonprofit purchased the school building. Lewis said the roof collapsed in May, and put a hard stop on the school’s renovations due to code violations.
