Gillis Elementary Evacuated

Class has been dismissed for the day at Gillis Elementary after a chemical odor was detected this morning (Friday)

According to KPLC's Theresa Schmidt, the chemical odor was similar to Lysol.

Parents have been informed that they may pick up their kids at the local feed store parking lot, but must have a valid ID to do so.

Students who ride the bus will be sent home but will only be let off the bus if a parent is at home.

Emergency vehicles were seen at the school, but there are no reports of any injuries. An empty stretcher was seen being loaded into an ambulance.

The school is located at 916 Topsy Road.

Many thanks to KPLC for allowing us to use the picture and information in this article.
