This morning at approximately 8:50am, the Taconic Hills facility experienced an electrical phase loss from the utility company.
In response to this, the Buildings & Grounds team cut power to the building to prevent damage to the building’s electrical equipment.
At no time were any students or staff in danger.
The fire department and NYSEG were requested to respond to the facility as a precautionary measure. Students were dismissed according to their emergency dismissal plan as a precaution as well.
The District is currently operating on generator power, and is working with an electrical contractor to assess damage & make necessary repairs.
Thank you for your cooperation during this time.
Dr. Neil L Howard, Jr.
