Positive Expressionz micro school damaged by storm flooding

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A local school is without a building after flooding from the recent storms. Positive Expressionz is a micro school in Yuma that serves children with disabilities and special needs.

For the past two and a half weeks, students have been without a classroom because of flooding damage. Money continues to be spent for things that are essential, but with no building, no students can attend, meaning no funds are coming in.

"Not only was the building physically devastated, but it also impacted not only the lives of ourselves because we were out of work, and we weren't able to see these wonderful children every day," said para professional Michael Acosta. "But it also devastated their lives as well as their parents' lives because now they're out of that service as well."

The school set up a GoFundMe to help secure a safe new building and replace damaged materials. If you'd like to help, you can find the GoFundMe here.
