Good morning, High Point.

Leon's Beauty School in Greensboro will close after 63 years, and staff expressed sadness over the decision (an employee noted routine tasks like shampooing hair and washing clothes).

A High Point University graduate was crowned Miss North Carolina after a state pageant, marking a proud achievement for our local community.

The win highlights the talent nurtured at the university and celebrates local success.

UNCG professors Aaron Terranova and William Adams advise locals to take heat precautions as temperatures are expected to reach the upper 90s during the coming holiday weekend.

They stress proper hydration, cooling breaks & limiting sun exposure to reduce heat-related risks across the Piedmont Triad.

The first two occupants of Palladium South mixed-use development — in north High Point — are under construction, with progress expected to continue in the coming weeks.
