Cold Weather Causes Issue in Pickens Schools

[ December 26, 2022 ] Because of extremely cold weather this weekend, PCSD has identified water leaks in five buildings. The damage at PJHS, JMS, and the administrative offices is minimal. A leak at the building that houses Mountain Education Charter High School is currently being assessed. The field house at PHS has extensive water damage.

A water mitigation company has been on-site at PHS working at the field house since this afternoon. Our facilities and maintenance personnel have been working diligently and will continue to monitor our campuses throughout the week in case other issues arise.

We will post updates as needed. At this time, the water issues will not affect the scheduled return to school for students on January 5, 2023. If this should change, we will work to notify families as soon as possible.
