Overview
- Students return to in-person classes Wednesday at Oswego East after two days of remote learning, with a few areas still closed for restoration.
- A failed roof drain pipe sent water from upper floors down through the building, and officials say some spaces will need extensive repairs.
- Restoration crews were deployed to 10 district buildings, including Oswego High School where the main gym sustained water damage that could sideline it for weeks.
- One section of Long Beach Elementary is unusable and eight additional schools reported minor leaks or water damage, according to district updates.
- Air-quality testing is being conducted in all impacted buildings to guard against microbial growth, and a lightning strike also disrupted communications during the response.
