Firefighters responded Tuesday night to a fire at Shiras Devorah Girls High School on Oak Street in Lakewood, where hundreds of students were inside the building preparing for a school expo.

The girls were safely evacuated to the Bais Tova gym after flames were reported inside Shiras Devorah’s walls and smoke was detected in the basement. Emergency crews arrived quickly and began investigating the source of the fire.

All students are safe and have been accounted for. No injuries were reported. 

Hatzolah was dispatched as a precaution.

It remains unclear whether the fire was connected in any way to the planned student-led expo, which had been scheduled to take place at the school.

Authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of the fire.
