From the Humboldt County Office of Education:

 

Due to the planned PG&E power shutoffs, the following Humboldt County schools and offices will not be open on Wednesday, October 9:

  • Big Lagoon
  • Southern Humboldt Union School District
  • Trinity Valley Elementary School (Please note all other Klamath Trinity sites have a generator and will remain in session.)

Unless otherwise notified, students at all other schools, should plan to attend school as regularly scheduled.

We will continue to communicate with PG&E and our Districts and post updates regarding the power shutoffs for any Schools and offices on our Facebook page (@HumboldtCOE) and our website at https://hcoe.org/news/alerts/

We have also created a web page for resources and up-to-date information related to Public Safety Power Shutoff at https://hcoe.org/psps/

Thank you for your support during this process as we work to ensure our school community stays informed.
