OKC Firefighters initially responded to reports of a grass fire that had spread to at least one house near Kelley, between E. Hefner Road and E. Britton Road.
Sustained winds of approximately 25 mph are helping to fuel the flames.
Authorities evacuated Oklahoma Centennial Mid-High School as a precaution. However, because of Spring Break no students were at the school.
