Several Hartford Schools Closed to Clear Roofs

Hartford Public Schools has closed 17 school buildings, containing 20 schools, on Monday so staff and private contracting crews can remove snow and ice from the roofs.

At least nine of the buildings should be cleared by the end of the day, David Medina, director of external communications for Hartford Public Schools, said.

Storms in December and January dropped record snowfalls across the state, leaving behind double the weight that roofs are designed to handle, in some cases.

The school buildings not cleared will remain closed on Tuesday.
