We're finally getting the first look at a brand new football field for Thomas Jefferson High School in Dallas, almost 4 years since a tornado tore through that part of the city.
In October 2019, TJHS and Walnut Hill Elementary School were severely damaged by an EF-3 tornado. Following the storm's aftermath, the Dallas Cowboys, in partnership with the Gene and Jerry Jones Family Foundation and the NFL Foundation, pledged $1 million toward the reconstruction of TJ's football field and the procurement of essential football equipment.
"I was chief of schools here in Dallas ISD when tornado hit and I walked that night throughout these particular grounds. It was shocking what had been destroyed. But today, the entire community gets to see what everyone contributed to redeveloping – and developing bigger and stronger than it was before."
