Transportation Department Fire

Floyd County Superintendent Anna Shepherd comments on a fire at the Floyd County Schools Transportation Garage.


Shepherd says, “On Saturday April 30, around 11:30 PM, the Martin Fire Department was called to a fire at our bus garage in Martin. The most important thing is that no one was hurt. We do have a damaged structure and buses and the extent of that damage is yet to be determined. At this time, we do not know what started the fire.”


Shepherd concludes, “We want to thank the Martin Fire Department, the Left Beaver Rescue Squad, the Maytown Fire Department and all the first responders, law enforcement, emergency management, Chief of Transportation Joe Marson and members of our Floyd County Schools team for their outstanding job last night, doing anything they could to help.”


Floyd County Schools will announce the status of school tomorrow as soon as possible.
