SDPC News: Due to power issues at homes and schools and unsafe roads, as workers continue recovery efforts due to Hurricane Helene, schools are closed on Wednesday, October 2, and Thursday, October 3, 2024.
The primary reasons for these closures include a lack of stable power, unsafe but passable roads, and a number of non-operational traffic signals. We respectfully ask that families minimize travel on county roads during this time to help emergency workers access areas needing support.
We will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as soon as possible about operations on Friday. Thank you for your patience, and stay safe!
