Good morning McCallum High School community,

Last night, two of our band buses returning to school from the Taco Shack Bowl were hit by a sedan that appears to have swerved out of its lane. All students and drivers were evaluated and five students and one of our drivers were treated on site. No students or staff required transport by EMS; however, the driver of the sedan sustained more significant injuries.

We are relieved that the incident happened near the stadium and several of our staff and emergency responders were able to respond quickly.

Two additional buses were dispatched to return students to school and my administration communicated directly with the families involved.

This is an active investigation and I am unable to provide additional information at this time.

Please contact me at andy.baxa@austinisd.org if you have further questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Andy Baxa

Principal

McCallum High School
