McCallie Manpower
for Tornado Victims On April 27, the Chattanooga area and much
of the Southeast experienced the seconddeadliest tornado storm day on record, according to experts. While the campus was generally spared, several nearby towns including Apison, Cleveland, Rossville and Trenton suffered tragic loss of life and property. The McCallie family reacted swiftly. On April 29, the school mobilized Upper School students to needy area locations to offer assistance, support and manpower. They moved downed trees, cleared limbs and debris, cleaned up city blocks and school playgrounds, donated 100 pints of blood and helped families with recovery efforts. In the following weeks, students organized food and clothing drives. “McCallie's rapid response to the crisis was a clear reflection of our community's commitment to helping others,” Headmaster Kirk Walker ’69 said.
