Le Roy Junior-Senior High School closed for second day

By Raymond Coniglio

Le Roy Junior-Senior High will be closed today, “due to ongoing issues in the boiler room,” Superintendent Kim Cox said in an automated message to parents.

The school was evacuated and closed Thursday morning after a possible natural gas leak was reported.

The message from Cox was sent to parents at 6:24 a.m. today.

Programs at BOCES are not affected by the closing in Le Roy. Students who attend BOCES in the morning, will be picked up on the morning school bus run as usual, Cox said.

Students who attend afternoon classes at BOCES are asked to report to the Junior-Senior High School bus loop by 11:20 a.m. Students who need a ride to school are advised to contact the Transportation Department 768-8640 by 9 a.m. today, and one will be arranged, Cox said.

High School Principal Tim McArdle will send a follow-up message later today, to let students and staff know how they can pick up any materials at the school they need for the weekend, Cox said.

Wolcott Street School, which houses students in prekindergarten through sixth grade, was closed Tuesday morning after a venting problem caused an odor in the building. Classes resumed Thursday and will continue as scheduled today, Cox said.
