Release

Dear Families of Westport Families  and Staff,

Tropical Storm Elsa is forecast to bring substantial precipitation to the region tomorrow morning. Westport could potentially receive 4-6 inches of rain in a short span of time. This amount of water, combined with precipitation from this evening’s thunderstorms could cause flash flooding throughout the community. As a result of the storm’s potential impact and out of an abundance of caution, all Westport Public Schools Extended School Year programs and all Westport Continuing Education programs scheduled to take place in our schools on Friday, July 9, 2021, are canceled.  Further information will follow as to any possible rescheduling of tomorrow’s activities.

Please stay safe during the storm and avoid travelling through any areas of standing water after the storm’s exit.

Respectfully,

Thomas Scarice

Superintendent of Schools
