Schools to close early because of rain

Posted by ChaddsFordLive on February 25, 2016

Last night’s rain has created a tricky situation in Unionville-Chadds Ford School District, Superintendent John Sanville said in an email, causing an early closing of Unionville High School and Patton Middle School.

"We have been monitoring water levels and road closures since 5 a.m. Things have changed rapidly and, in light of the number of bridges and roads that are closed, we are dismissing high school and middle school students at 1:30. Our elementary schools will dismiss on time. By doing this we are allowing extra time for the buses to get everyone home safely. In addition we have cancelled all after school activities."
