From Superintendent Tom Scarice

Good morning,

Following historic rainfalls, we are ready to safely open schools.  Some of our schools experienced water incursion for a variety of reasons and we are working to determine the sources so that they can be addressed.  In some cases, the water entered the schools as a result of ground penetration, and in other cases the roof drains were simply inundated with an unprecedented volume of water in a short period of time.  In any case, we are working to address the areas so that they are treated appropriately.  

Where impacted, building principals will follow up with their school communities with additional information related to their facilities.  Some offices and areas will be offline for a short period of time.  However, we are fortunate that this did not impact our capability of holding school today.

Sincerely,

Thomas Scarice

Superintendent
