Canyon ISD Moving Students to Heritage Hills

Canyon Independent School District officials that they;ll be moving students from Gene Howell Elementary to Heritage Hills.

The move comes on the heels of Xcel Energy needing to shut off power to the area, that includes the school’s campus.

School officials say there does not seem to be a safety threat in the area of Howell Elementary, but Heritage Hills will be in use by them for the time being.

Xcel says an underground cable failed and they are in the process of replacing it, however underground cable work takes longer.

The plan is to get the lights back on Thursday afternoon and continue the work over the weekend to upgrade the transformer.
