EARLY DISMISSAL at 10 AM WEDNESDAY: The smell of gas was detected at Rockvale High School and parents of students were notified about the situation at about 8:30 Wednesday morning.
Rockvale principal Steve Luker notified parents that students would be dismissed EARLY, due to the smell of gas in the building.
NOTICE TO PARENTS (9:40AM on WEDNESDAY):
Rockvale High dismissing at 10 a.m. today
Rockvale High School will begin dismissing at 10 a.m. today because of an unresolved gas leak that was detected before the school day began.
The school administration noticed a natural gas smell in one of the hallways this morning before 8 a.m. and had the gas turned off. School begins at 8:30 a.m. and students were diverted to the football stadium until crews could investigate.
Crews from the utility department, the fire department and the district’s maintenance department are on scene and working to isolate and repair the leak.
However, the decision has been made to dismiss the high school students to return home because of the uncertainty of the how long it will take to repair. Parents have been notified by the school directly with specific instructions and dismissal will be held — using Rockvale Middle School’s parking lots — beginning at 10 a.m.
We appreciate parents’ patience and understanding as we address this situation.
