When a tornado ripped through Coweta County in late March, the storm left a trail of devastation in its wake. The road to recovery will be a long one, and schools around Fayette County are stepping up in a variety of ways to help their neighbors in need.
It hit especially close to home for a couple of Fayette schools. Rising Starr Middle band director Brandon Respress and his wife Katherine, a math teacher at Sandy Creek, and their two children survived the storm, but their home was destroyed. The Rising Starr band family set up a GoFundMe to help the family, raising nearly $17,000 so far.
