UPDATE: Please read the following update from Superintendent Johnson regarding the damage to the RHS Gymnasium.
Wildcat family,
I am sure that some of you have seen or been told that there has been some significant damage to our high school gym caused by the storms that moved through tonight. First, I would like to thank the Emory Fire Department for their quick response and work throughout the evening.
The building has been inspected, and we will be having school tomorrow. The high school parking lot, gym, and locker rooms will be closed for the time being. Staff has checked all district facilities. At this time, there does not seem to be any other damage in the district.
We will be in contact with structural engineers and our insurance company to evaluate the best course of action for repair in the coming days. As we move forward in this situation, we will work to keep everyone informed.
Thank you to all of the staff, county officials, and community members who provided assistance this evening.
Jennifer Johnson
Superintendent, Rains ISD
