Montgomery County, TN – Northeast High School, 3701 Trenton Road, will be a Multi-Agency Disaster Relief Center through Tuesday, December 19th, 2023, coordinated by The Clarksville-Montgomery County School System (CMCSS) and Northeast High School administration.
The American Red Cross Shelter will be open through Friday, December 29th, at the latest, to allow time for Northeast High School to prepare for classes to resume on January 4th. Our doors are open for anyone who has been impacted by the tornado and needs support or resources.
The Red Cross Shelter will be open 24 hours a day. Other services will be available only between 8:00am and 7:00pm. Law enforcement will be on-site 24 hours a day.
At this time, there is no need for additional volunteers to show up at Northeast High School. Hundreds of CMCSS employees have been volunteering and are continuing to sign up to assist at Northeast High School.
Please see below for the services provided at the Multi-Agency Disaster Relief Center:
Meals
CMCSS has coordinated a meal service and distribution center. With support from World Central Kitchen, Macedonian Missionary Service, Red Cross, Clarksville-Montgomery County Education Foundation, and numerous restaurants, food trucks, and community partners, Northeast High School will be serving and distributing over 3,000 meals per day. Volunteers will deliver hot meals to affected areas across the community every afternoon.
Warm meals will also be served on-site for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
We appreciate the support, but CMCSS is following Red Cross policies and not accepting donations of warm meals from citizens. ServSafe-certified organizations are preparing meals for the health and safety of recipients. CMCSS is accepting donations of non-perishable food items.
