(Center Point) - CBS42's Ken Lass presented a $1,000 check to Erwin schools as part of the station's One Class at a Time education project. The check was received by Erwin Middle School principal Jay Gary. It will be used for supplies to aid the transition of over 600 Center Point Elementary students to the Erwin campus. The move was necessary after a January tornado destroyed the Center Point Elementary building. Watch the video!
