As Center Point firefighters worked to put out a massive early morning apartment fire, two local principals made sure they were at the scene too.
“Walking up there, not knowing what I was walking into - my heart started beating fast. I started praying ‘Lord, let my babies be okay’," said Kirsten Logan-Marshall, Principal at Erwin Intermediate School.
Erwin Intermediate Principal Kirsten Logan-Marshall loves her students like her own. So, when she heard about the early morning fire at Parkway Villa Apartments, she headed to the scene.
“I decided to come to school, clock in, go over to Parkway Villa to ensure none of my students were harmed,” said Logan-Marshall.
Stepping over fire hoses, passing men in gear, she worked with Center Point High School’s principal, Mr. Van Phillips, to check on families.
