Last night Elk City's Grandview 5th and 6th Grade Center caught fire. The building is still standing and stuff; the damage was pretty much contained to one room, even though you could smell the smoke throughout the entire building. One of the classes had an incubator over some chicken eggs, and it fell into the box. Today they had torn out the ceiling tiles, carpet, and much of the cabinetry when I saw the room. The had giant blowers with air filters to help circulate some fresh air through the building. Luckily this happened when no students were around, so everybody was safe. At the rate they're moving, it looks as though the room should be restored within a week or two.
