Watkins Mill High School Evacuated Due To Sprinkler Going Off

Watkins Mill High School was evacuated this afternoon after a sprinkler in one of the hallways near the main entrance went off.

Though some believe the heat may have been the cause, the exact reason for the sprinkler going off isn’t known. The fire department was able to come and take care of the situation.

The incident occurred late in the afternoon, so it did not impact classes during the day.
