Greenwood Boilers Not Operational –

This morning near 7:30 AM the main boiler at Greenwood stopped working due to a fan motor not operating. The other boiler is missing a part that needs to be replaced. That repair is underway as well.

Due to the lack of the majority of the building, not receiving heat parents may come and pick up their children as classroom temperatures will be in the 50’s.

We will utilize space heaters in our classrooms for the remainder of the day. We expect the boilers to be working at 12:00 or later in the afternoon.

We understand the impact of this important issue and apologize that we could not communicate sooner.

**Please note that all schools are added to this link as we receive confirmation of closures and/or delays. If your school is not listed then we have not received notice from that school of any schedule changes.
