Today, at approximately 11:25am, an emergency evacuation took place at PCE due to smoke detection in the multi-purpose (gym/cafeteria) room. All students and staff safely evacuated to a location outside the building, and Fairbury Fire Department responded. It was determined that the smoke was caused by a fault in the heating system in that location. After determining that the building was again safe, the fire department gave the “all clear” for students and staff to re-enter and resume usual activities. All students and staff were safe during this incident.
Thank you to the Fairbury Fire Department for their quick response, and to the Prairie Central Elementary staff for the remarkable job they did keeping students calm, orderly, and safe during the evacuation. We are truly blessed
