Newtown High School will close at 10 a.m. Monday because of burst pipes in the building, according to the school’s website.
A Tweet from the school said there was a flood in the F wing and it caused extensive damage.
This morning at NHS we discovered a flood in our F wing which caused extensive damage to our school. Due to the damage, we will need to close NHS at 10:00 am this morning. This closing will only impact Newtown High School. Transportation will be provided for the students.
