SANTA FE, Texas (KTRK) — Santa Fe High School students and staff had to be evacuated from the building Wednesday afternoon because of a gas odor in the cafeteria kitchen, the district said in a tweet.

The district sent out the announcement at about 12:10 p.m. and by 12:45 p.m., students and staff got the OK to re-enter the building.

All students are safe.

Everyone remained outside until CenterPoint Energy deemed the building was safe.

SkyEye captured the video above which shows a fire truck and some gas crews in the school parking lot.

“All students who were unable to finish their lunch due to the evacuation will be allowed to eat lunch,” the district said.
