Computers stolen from local school

LA PUENTE - A break-in at a La Puente middle school will cost at least $20,000 to repair the classroom and replace stolen equipment, officials said Wednesday.

Vandals broke into the computer room at Sparks Middle School between Friday night and Saturday morning. They came through the ceiling and stole 11 computers and damaged eight of them, according to LaDonna Jackson, spokeswoman for the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District. The classroom had 30 computers in it.

Since then, all remaining computers have been taken out of the room, while the ceiling is being repaired.

Students who used the classroom now meet in the counseling room, where they learn computer programming from a projector and books but without access to computers, according to Jackson."
