It's not a Monet, but it's just as valuable to E.C. Glass High School. Someone stole a painting from the south hallway of the school. It's called "Man with a Cigar," and a student painted it back in 1977.
Sometime April 16th or early the next day, someone went into the school and took the painting. Now police are asking for tips in finding it.
You can call Crime Stoppers (web) at 1-888-798-5900. Your tips are anonymous and you could earn up to $1,000 in reward money.
