St. Tammany Parish Schools Closed Today In Storm Aftermath

The St. Tammany Parish Public School System says all schools will be closed today as the area recovers from Wednesday's storms.

District supervisors and school principals will report to work, but the rest of the staff and all students get the day off.

The schools are closed partly because of the power outages.

The school system is also checking for damage to its buildings, along with downed trees and limbs on a number of campuses.

Some surrounding streets also suffered damage.
