Snow Load Leads to School Closing

Old Rochester Senior and Junior High Schools will be closed on Monday, February 23 while the structural integrity of the roofs is evaluated due to the recent snow loads. The school district posted this notice:

“While our crews were clearing the roofs at the Junior High School and Senior High School, late this afternoon, there were concerns reported by the foreman of the insurance group who was overseeing the work that a portion of the roof may have been compromised. As a result of this information and the need to ensure the safety of our students, school at the junior high school and senior high school in the Old Rochester School District will be closed on Monday, February 23, 2015. Please know that first thing tomorrow we will have structural engineers in the district to inspect the roofs and provide information and direction that will allow us to take the necessary steps to ensure that the building is safe and when students may return to school.  I will provide updated information as we move through the process through connect ED and the district website.  Thank you for cooperation and patience as we manage this matter.”
