  • Regardless of what caused the damage - thunderstorm winds or a tornado - the impacts are the same for the people of York County.
    Rock Hill Schools kept students home Monday for a day of virtual learning citing impassable roads and some school buildings without power. The schools will remain in e-learning on Tuesday.
    The district said some of the buses were damaged by hail and the semi-trucks that would've brought food to the schools couldn't get through because of all the debris.
    "E-learning provides the opportunity for less of a disruption to instruction. We want to ensure our children continue to learn even if our facilities are unable to be open," a district spokesperson said. "For those concerned about access issues, they may reach out to their school or teacher for assistance. Every student has five days to complete the work following our return to school."
    On Jones Avenue, the Redeeming Life Christian Center also saw major damage. The church is the site of the first school to integrate in South Carolina. While, on Monday, the historic building seemed to be okay, elsewhere on the center's campus were toppled trees and damaged buildings.
    A large tree destroyed two trailers, formerly used as portable classrooms and a youth center. The trailers were being used as storage when they were destroyed.
    "I really wanted to cry, but then I recognized, you know, everything happens for a reason," Bishop Eric Gailliard said. "Even though we may not like it, but you’ve got to find a way to maintain your joy in the midst of the storm. Find a way to maintain your joy. Keep your peace. Keep your joy. So, now we have to clean up, but guess what? Something new is going to happen.”
