Two students at the North Crowley 9th Grade Campus were burned yesterday, according to school officials. One student poured hot water on another during a confrontation. Campus staff and on-site medical personnel responded right away, and the school was briefly placed on a medical hold while students were checked out. A second student who was standing nearby was also hit by the water and had less serious injuries, officials said. Crowley ISD stated that it is continuing to investigate the incident but is not releasing more details because of student privacy rules.
What the district says
As reported by the Fort Worth Star‑Telegram, Crowley ISD confirmed that a student poured hot water on another student and that medical staff treated those who were injured. The paper noted that the campus was briefly placed on a medical hold while staff handled the situation. District officials told the Star‑Telegram they would not share additional information, citing student-privacy protections. They said the matter is still under investigation.
Campus history and safety context
The North Crowley campus has dealt with other troubling incidents in recent years. In 2020, a parking-lot shooting after a youth basketball game wounded an adult and a 10-year-old, according to local reporting. The Dallas Morning News reported at the time that the event was a rental and not a district-sanctioned activity. Incidents like that have fueled ongoing questions about how security is handled at rented events and on district property.
What families should watch for
Crowley ISD has said it will provide updates on the hot-water incident as the investigation allows, and families should look for official messages through district communication channels, the Star‑Telegram reported. The campus website lists contact numbers along with a "Submit a Concern" form for parents who want information or need to report an issue, which the district uses as its standard way to route concerns. Parents with urgent questions can reach out directly to campus administrators and are encouraged to keep an eye on district communications for any official updates.
