GEFF GRADE SCHOOL

4/8/25

The Geff Grade School was evacuated early Monday morning when a smoke alarm sounded at about 9:30.

The Fairfield Rural Fire Department responded to the alarm and found a heating element overheated on a water heater and began to smoke.  Students evacuated the building upon hearing the alarm and relocated to the neighboring church while the inspection was taking place according to our protocols.

The school was cleared by the firefighters and students returned to their classrooms about 30 minutes after the alarm.
