Good morning White Cliffs Families,
White Cliffs Middle School, as a caution, evacuated to Desert Willow this morning, due to the smell of natural gas around the school. We contacted the gas company in order to determine the source of the smell. Our first priority is always student and staff safety. The gas company has cleared the campus and determined it is safe to return to school. The evacuation went off without a hitch and the practice that we had a couple weeks ago paid off today as we were able to quickly get students to a safe location until we could determine the campus was safe. Thank you for your support.
