TULSA, Okla. (AP) -
Officials have found a new facility for Tulsa students whose school was
destroyed in a fire Wednesday morning.
The Tulsa School of Arts
and Sciences says classes will be held Thursday at Sequoyah Elementary
School. Tulsa Public Schools offered up the vacant building Wednesday
after the blaze destroyed the charter school's building at 17th Street
and Lewis Avenue.
School workers scrambled Wednesday to ready the vacant Sequoyah building in time for Thursday's classes.
Eight firefighters suffered
burns after a series of explosions broke out in the building.
Investigators are still determining the cause of the fire and subsequent
blasts. No students or employees were in the building when the fire
broke out at about 5 a.m. Wednesday.
