The Palisades Fire Spreads to Palisades Charter High School Campus
A massive fire in the Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles has taken a devastating turn, spreading to the campus of Palisades Charter High School. The fire, which was reported earlier in the day, has engulfed several buildings and structures on the campus, including the baseball field, tennis courts, and potentially even some of the classroom bungalows.
According to Allison Holdoff Polchier, senior adviser to school board member Nick Melvin, the fire has been raging for over 90 minutes, with firefighters working tirelessly to contain the blaze and save as many buildings as possible. “The ballpark is on fire,” she said, “neighbors sent me pictures of the baseball field on fire. There were also tennis courts. There may have been a fire in the classroom bungalows, but that hasn’t been confirmed.”
Palisades High School is an independent charter school, operating on a campus owned by Los Angeles Unified University. Although there were staff and student-athletes present on campus this morning, no classes were taking place, which is why everyone was able to vacate the premises quickly and safely. The school is not the only one affected, as several other Los Angeles Unified schools are also likely to be impacted.
