All electrical lines to the school itself have been tested and are operational, so classes will resume on time. If extracurricular activities will be affected, Swan said the coach or adviser would reach out to parents.
Officials found out about a partial power outage at the high school Tuesday morning when students already were on the way to the school, Swan said. Later, the power at the whole school went out. At that point, the students were moved to the stadium and were dismissed using buses, parent pickup and, for some kids, walking home.
All other schools remained in session on normal schedules, the district posted on social media. The high school students did not need to log in for online learning.
High school families were alerted to the early dismissal through the “ParentSquare” system. Swan said the initial notice about the partial power outage went out about 7:15 a.m. and the dismissal instructions went out about 10 a.m.
“We were very grateful for everyone’s cooperation and understanding,” Swan said.
