Fire at West High
Sources said fires were set in two of the girl's bathrooms at Corning-Painted Post West High School today. The fire alarm went off in school between 9:45 to 10 a.m. and the students were quickly evacuated to the outside of the building where they could see smoke coming from the back of the school. The students were kept outside for 45 minutes where they watched approximately seven fire trucks and a couple of natural gas trucks arrive at the scene.
At this point the students began to get alarmed because they did not know the location or cause of the fire. Once the fire was under control, school officials ordered the students back in the school and to go directly to the gym. While they were in the gym a school official announced over the loud speaker that school was let out for the day and that ten students at a time should go to the office to call their parents or someone to come and take them home. The school official also announced that there would be a $500 reward given to anyone who came forward with knowledge as to who set the fires. All students had to leave their backpacks and bags with school officials. Sources said the kids knew who had set the fire but the school officials did not. Anyone with any information on the fire should call the school.

yes i would like to correct the statement about where the smoke of the fire was coming out of the back of the school.It was really coming out of the right wing of the front of the school
.
At first i was really scared...I didnt know what was going on. While i was outside cuddling with friends to stay warm.... I heard that some freshman had started a fire in one of the 300 hall bathroom. It sounds so ignorant to even think about starting a fire in school..It made us leave school early just for something this small and stupid. They are going to reward me $500 cuz I am MONK's daughter inlaw's cusin whos friends with the persons daddys brother who his sisters lover....
I believe this little girl or who ever had done this to our beautiful school should be locked up..and i also believe that we should have better hall monitors who pay attention that they shouldnt complain about PDA when they have people setting the school on fire!!!!
Thank you for letting My fiends and I state our comments we luv you! :)
What's PDA mean?
