Sad news from Kershaw, SC, as the North Central HS campus was damaged in a tornado last night.

A post on the North Central HS Facebook Page confirmed the news:

Dear North Central High School Family,

Last night, there was a storm that damaged our campus. School and district officials are working with our local and state officials as we assess the damage and make decisions. We will share information with you as we have it available. This is heartbreaking to our whole community – we appreciate your patience and prayers at this time.

According to a comment made by Director of Band’s Jonas Nix, the NCHS band room has been flooded, but there are currently efforts to salvage equipment and uniforms pending a survey by structural engineers.

We will follow the story and provide updates on efforts going on at the school when they become available.
