Howard L. Goff Middle School and the Transportation Department are currently without power. The school district is evaluating the situation and contacting National Grid.

The district is considering the potential for an early dismissal of Goff Middle School today if the power cannot be restored. If the power is not restored by 10:00 a.m., Goff will have an early dismissal and send students home. ​Parents/guardians will be notified ​if that decision is made.

The Family and Consumer Science field trip for today has been canceled and those students have remained at Goff.
