Texas school gathers supplies to help flood-impacted locals after spotlight moves on
Share this @internewscast.com

As families in the Texas Hill Country struggle with the aftermath of a severe flood, a local elementary school has shifted its role from a reunification center to a distribution hub for supplies.

The Interim Superintendent of Ingram Independent School District, Mindy Curran, shared with Fox News Digital the rapid changes that have taken place at Ingram Elementary School over the past three days.

“On the first day, we opened Ingram Elementary as a reunification center for families searching for loved ones as our camps were evacuating,” Curran explained. “Each day, it’s adapted according to the immediate needs of our community.”

When asked how operations at Ingram Elementary School were able to get going quickly, Curran credited the community for its support.

“What’s really impressive is our community, and I knew it, but nothing tells you like when you have a situation where the community really needs to rally around and step up in a catastrophe like what we’ve had,” Curran said. “And their response has been just overwhelming.”

As she was speaking with Fox News Digital, a truck with a pallet of water bottles drove up to the school’s entrance. Curran pointed out that the people coming with supplies were from outside the local area and drove hours to get to Ingram Elementary School.

While she said that she could not speak to the immediate needs of impacted families, Curran said that the Ingram School District is being responsive and preparing for what comes next. Long after the floodwaters have receded and the spotlight is off of Kerr County, local families will need supplies, she said. And they’ll be waiting inside Ingram Elementary School.
