Colchester's Bacon Academy will be closed again Thursday after an oil leak at the high school.
School officials said the oil line leak is in the boiler room of the school. Classes were canceled Wednesday.
Between 1,700 and 2,000 gallons spilled, according to the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. Some of the oil made it into Sherman Brook, which runs behind the school, the DEEP said.
