Elementary classrooms destroyed in Hays fire

Austin American-Statesman (TX)

A fire destroyed two second-grade classrooms within a portable building at Camino Real Elementary in the Hays school district.

The fire likely was started about 11 p.m. Monday night by an electrical or mechanical failure of an air conditioning unit, thought fire officials still are investigating, said Tim Savoy, Hays district spokesman. No one was injured.

Students had returned to school for the Hays district's first day last Thursday. The second-graders in the two classrooms were moved to the main building.

"It's not the way you want to start a new year, but we're very grateful no one was injured hurt or were in the building at the time," Savoy said. "All the things can be replaced but people cannot be so we're counting our blessings."

Damages to the portable building, which had a classroom on each side and was equipped with full bathrooms, are estimated between $200,000 and $250,000. The district's insurance will cover the costs, but teachers' decorations and personal items, as well as the students' supplies they brought to school aren't covered, he said.

Donations of cash, checks or gift cards can made out to the school Camino Real Elementary PTA to help replace those supplies.

Flourish brings private-bank-like cash solution to MassMutual’s network

By Press Release

NEW YORK CITY—October 8, 2026—Flourish, a wealthtech platform that helps RIAs and broker-dealers deliver a private-bank-like experience to their clients, today announced an enterprise relationship with MassMutual and its network of financial professionals.

The relationship extends Flourish Cash to MassMutual's network of more than 6,000 financial professionals across the nation. Through the relationship, financial professionals affiliated with MassMutual can offer clients access to Flourish Cash. Flourish Cash allows clients the ability to access a high-yield interest rate on their held-away cash, currently 9x the nationwide savings account average. Flourish Cash also provides elevated FDIC insurance coverage of up to $40 million for a two-person household through Flourish's Program Banks.

"At MassMutual, we're committed to equipping financial professionals with the tools and support they need to help their clients thrive,” said Vaughn Bowman, CFA, head of wealth management with MassMutual. “This is the perfect time to build on our relationship with Flourish by offering Flourish Cash to our advisor network.”

MassMutual can now offer customers a private-bank-like experience that drives both firm growth and client satisfaction,” said Max Lane, CEO of Flourish.
