CINCINNATI (WKRC) — A local school district announced a two-hour delay on Wednesday over a power outage.

According to a statement issued to social media, Lakota Schools will operate on a two-hour delay on Wednesday due to a power outage affecting the Service Center, as well as several other district facilities.

The post states that an outage at the Service Center impacts transportation safety because it means there are no radios available for communication.

“We understand this is a major inconvenience for our families. Unfortunately, the temporary fix we had in place until a major upgrade could be completed over Thanksgiving break did not hold,” the statement reads.

District officials asked parents and staff to check their emails for additional information.
