Early Dismissal At Central High As Electrical Issues In Cafeteria Cause Fire

ST. CROIX -- Effective immediately, the Department of Education has announced early dismissal of classes at St. Croix Central High School on Thursday, September 6 due to an electrical issue affecting the cafeteria and the campus's major wings.

Students have been reporting to their parents that the electrical issue caused a fire in the cafeteria.

An electrician is on-site assessing the situation and has determined a specialized part is needed from off-island in order to complete repairs. School bus service is being dispatched to transport students to their regular drop-off locations. Parents are asked to pick up students from the school's campus.

Information on the high school's reopening will be announced on the Department of Education's Facebook page and through the local media.
