Central Grade School Closed Friday Due To Sewage Backup

By Beth Milligan | Oct. 23, 2020

Central Grade School will not have school Friday (either face-to-face or remote) due to a sewage backup at the building caused by heavy rains Thursday.

According to a Traverse City Area Public Schools announcement, City of Traverse City staff were onsite with district staff working to resolve the issue Thursday at the downtown elementary school. “Unfortunately, due to the timing of the backup, it will not be fixed and the building properly cleaned prior to the start of school (Friday),” the announcement stated.

Parents who would like to pick up breakfast and/or lunch for their Central Grade School student may do so at TCAPS Montessori at Glenn Loomis from 7am to 7:45am Friday in the front circle drive. Central Grade School is expected to be open on Monday.
