About an hour ago, the water department responded to a broken water line in the south end of the county that has affected L.K. Moss's water supply. At this time, we are not closing and are making the best of the situation. We will keep you updated if further problems arise.
In case students come home talking about it, we want to let you know that the county was doing maintenance on their fire hydrants this morning and it caused a brief interruption in our water pressure.
