One thing is for sure - if you want to have a thriving new suburb in these “tornado alley” areas - your school needs to have a large underground “tornado proof” place with room for all the kids - and a wide access hall/tunnel to get to it (to avoid bottle necks).
Big expense but it will pay for itself - and it can be used for other stuff in good weather.
That’s what I’d be looking for.
