Smoking Battery Causes FJH Students To Move Classrooms Thursday – No Injuries

A smoking battery due to a possible student prank resulted in moving Fishers Junior High Schools students to move from one classroom to another Thursday due to the smoke.  There were no injuries.

Here is the message sent to Fishers Junior High School parents Friday afternoon:

We wanted to let you know about an incident that happened yesterday afternoon in a classroom. During 6th period, a student put a thumbtack into a cell phone battery during instruction. The battery then started smoking. All students were moved out of the classroom, while administrators safely disposed of the battery. Thankfully no injuries were reported, and students continued learning in a neighboring classroom until dismissal.
