Please read the following notice from Superintendent Johnson regarding closure of the High School campus tomorrow, December 1st.


Please read the following notice from Superintendent Johnson regarding the smell of gas on the High School campus this morning:
"Dear Parents and Guardians:
Prior to school beginning this morning, the high school building was evaluated by professionals due to the smell of gas. It was determined that there was not a gas leak, but out of an abundance of caution Atmos was also brought in to thoroughly examine the pressure in all lines in the building.
I want to assure you that all students and staff on the campus are safe and we have taken appropriate measures to ensure the safety of the building.
The safety and security of our students and staff is always a top priority.
Jennifer Johnson
Superintendent, Rains ISD"
