The smell that was first detected Wednesday forced an early dismissal. Still, classes for Thursday were not canceled and the odor remained in the morning, the principal said.At least one person was stretchered into an ambulance after Caney Creek High School's principal said students were evacuated Thursday due to a concerning odor that was first detected in the building Wednesday morning.
Stichler first notified parents Wednesday in an email sent out at 7:46 a.m., saying in part, "To keep you informed, CCHS was evacuated this morning due to a gas smell near the cafeteria. The Caney Creek Fire Department and CISD Maintenance Department are investigating the source, and gas has been shut off to the building while the matter is being addressed. We anticipate being able to re-enter the building shortly.
Still, classes had not been canceled for Thursday, despite the principal's last message to parents at 9:35 p.m. Wednesday said, "The exact source of the odor has not been determined, but many steps have been taken to ensure a clean and healthy school environment."
