Schools in Jefferson Parish will not reopen next week.
This is due to the slow progress of assessing Hurricane Ida damage at each school, according to school system officials.
Officials say there are no plans to reopen the school district during the week of Sept. 6.
“Jefferson Parish Schools will not reopen during the week of September 6. All schools and buildings remain closed until further notice. We are currently assessing the impact of Hurricane Ida at each school. Upon reviewing those conditions, a clear path forward for learning will be provided. We will rebuild, recover, and reopen as soon as possible. Stay safe and take care of the loved ones in your life. We will provide additional updates starting early next week,” Jefferson Parish Schools said on their website.
Crews are still assessing the damage caused by Hurricane Ida at each school.
