Arson Incident

Around 11:00 PM, on January 11, 2006, a former student purposely started a fire in the school, burning four classrooms and causing over one million dollars in damages. The arsonist also spray painted an insult to the school principal on a wall. Following the incident, the school tried to maintain a normal routine for the students by continuing classes as usual. Counseling was provided if needed to any children in the school. A $25,000 reward was offered for "information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the arson fire...", $12,000 of which was approved by local law enforcement. [ [http://cao.lacounty.gov/pdf/press_releases_2007/01-08_09-07_agenda_highlights.pdf Microsoft Word - JAN. 9 2007 HIGHLIGHTS.doc ] ] The remaining $12,500 was provided by the school board's Special Reserve Fund. [ [http://antonovich.co.la.ca.us/pressrel/011306-sangabriel.htm] ] The community helped to raise money to rebuild the school's damaged classrooms, while portable classrooms were used in the time between. The local ValuMart held a benefit fund-raiser, serving hot dogs and other food and donating all money earned to the school. A local McDonald's held a "McTeacher Night" and donated 20% of the that night's sales to the Emperor PTA Fire Relief Fund. The local Kiwanis Club held a Pancake Breakfast and donated the proceeds of the funds raised to the fire relief fund as well. The local Valu Mart held a fund raising lunch for fire relief as well.
