MESA, Ariz. (AP) _ Mesa's Dobson High School is sprucing up as it prepares for Wednesday's visit by President Barack Obama.
Crews are painting, polishing, waxing floors and planting new trees around the campus.
Several Qwest communications trucks were in the school's parking lot Monday.
A Qwest construction supervisor says about 35 workers have been working around-the-clock since Saturday to bring Internet lines, phone lines and data lines into the school and ready for the president, the Secret Service and the news media.
Inside the gym, White House staff are handling the stage setup.
