We are having a water issue at the schools. However, the problem has been worked on over the weekend. Our water is on and the toilets are flushing. We are going to send the students home early tomorrow afternoon, Tuesday, February 7th. We will load the buses at 12:00. This will give our maintenance people time to provide a better solution to the problem. Thank you for your patience as we continue to work to get the issue resolved.
