SAN ANTONIO — Pearsall Independent School District announced they are canceling classes for Tuesday, Feb. 27.
Parents, guardians and community members were sent a letter from Dr. Nobert Rodriguez, Superintendent of Schools Monday afternoon.
According to the letter the school district decided to cancel classes because only one water well is in working condition and the city could experience low to no water pressure until Tuesday evening.
Rodriguez said repairs could take several hours to complete and could negatively impact the school.
"This precautionary measure aims to safeguard everyone's well-being," Rodriguez said in the letter.
