Due to transformer damage in the area, power is out in one of the buildings at Harris Elementary. Currently, there is no Internet in this part of the building either. Power is expected to be restored by 10 AM.
PCSSD will be open for regular business hours tomorrow (Friday, Aug. 28). Schools will operate on their normal Friday schedule (which includes blended Group B students). Extended care and athletic activities will resume tomorrow as well. #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
