The following information is what we know about the incident this morning.
We know that there was a collision on one of our rural bus routes, which was between a Morrill Public Schools Bus and a Semi Truck. The accident is being investigated by Law enforcement. There were injuries to both, the driver of the bus, and the driver of the Semi Truck. All of our students, who were on the bus, were evaluated by medical personnel at the scene and then released to their parents at that time.
Marvel Cole our bus driver was transported to Regional West Medical Center, and she has been evaluated and released. The driver of the Semi was also transported to RWMC.
Our students, who were on the bus, did an excellent job of following emergency procedures, staying calm, and notifying the authorities. We are relieved that our students were returned safely to their parents.
School Counselors and ESU staff will be available to assist any student who experienced any trauma from today's events.
If one of your students is in need of counseling, please contact the school office or the school counselor.

Beware of the Mosquito as you attend the games on Friday.
As you may have noticed this summer, there has been a large increase in those annoying pests, mosquitoes. Unfortunately, due this increase in population the Panhandle is a high-risk area for contracting West Nile Virus. We are encouraging all of our fans, coaches and athletes to please take precautions while outside today and make sure to use mosquito and bug repellant. We do have some cans of spray available at our concession stand for use if you do not have any, as long as the supply lasts that is.
If you can plan ahead and bring some spray with you or apply before you come to the game.
See you all on Friday! GO LIONS!!
It's going down tonight! Your Morrill Football Lions are ready!!!!!
