Claremont Elementary open Friday

October 27, 2010

Claremont Elementary School closed Wednesday
after storms hit the city Tuesday.

Friday is planned as a teacher work day for Catawba County Schools. But Claremont Elementary students and staff will have Friday as a make-up day after canceling school Wednesday.

CCS Public Information Officer Carleen Crawford said Claremont Elementary students will go to school Friday as scheduled, but will be released by 12:30 p.m.

Claremont Elementary principal Chris Gibbs announced Wednesday for teachers to report to the school as they could after storms hit Catawba County on Tuesday night. Wednesday was the school's teacher work day to leave Friday open for students to attend.
