A team of maintenance workers and custodians are cleaning up Ansonia Middle School after a pipe burst in the back vestibule Monday, flooding part of the school, according to the superintendent.
Superintendent Dr. Carol Merlone said three maintenance workers and three custodians are working to mop up excess water and repair the broken pipe.
According to Merlone, school is closed Tuesday due to February vacation but she expects everything will be taken care of in time for students to arrive back on Wednesday.
Ansonia Middle School isn't the only facility affected by extreme cold. A burst pipe also flooded part of an assisted living center in Hamden, and crews with the Metropolitan District Commission have been busy with at least half a dozen water main breaks.
