Kennedy Elementary staffers had a unique situation on their hands Tuesday after a communication tower on the campus was blown into a precarious angle, resting against one of the building's classroom wings. The tower was not in use by the district and will be removed.
A failure at the base of the tower resulted in the tower leaning onto the building toward Rockwall street. If the tower had fallen any other direction, the damage could have been much worse. TISD Police and Terrell Fire crews are working to direct traffic in the area.
Students were removed from the affected wings of the school and administrators were working on revised pick-up procedures to keep kids and parents out of harm's way until the tower is cleared.
