Hard to know at this point- but theoretically a school should be a fairly safe location- unless the tornado is a real hellraiser- which this one looks to have been.

I heard they are guessing it was a F3 or stronger.

We have tornado drills about 3 times a year at our school. Inside wall, duck and cover.

When you consider how many kids live in unsturdy structures and mobile homes, it would be safer for those kids to be at school. Of course some schools have better places of safety than others. I can think of many schools I would and would not want to be in during weather like this.
