Schools closed until Monday

Leaky roofs and a power outage Monday were the only impact from flooding on Eunice schools.
But Supt. Edward Brown said Plaisance Elementary was hit by a foot of water.
The Plaisance school was the worst hit of parish schools, he said.
Washington Elementary’s gymnasium and the main building took on water, but custodial staff got the water off floors quickly, he said.
Schools were mostly affected by leaky roofs, he said.
Brown said the school closure was on a day-to-day basis.
St. Landry Parish public school released classes at about noon Friday and remained out through Wednesday.
Eunice High School had a power outage Monday, he said.
Eunice Junior High School had a leak in its office.
The Eunice schools are ready for students to return, Brown said Tuesday.
However, schools will remain closed until Monday.
St. Edmund schools also are closed until Monday.
