Scribner Closed Today, Feb. 12

E-mail communication from Scribner Elementary School this morning –

Good morning Scribner families, this is Nancy Bradstreet, Director of Communications calling to inform you that Scribner is closed today due to a construction related issue.

Epoxy flooring was installed in the new addition last evening and fumes from that installation have permeated the entire building.

We apologize for the late notice, but felt it was best to keep students home today. Thank you.
