KFDM · last updated

Hamshire-Fannett — Entergy is investigating the source of power outages that have left Hamshire-Fannett ISD campuses in the dark, and the school district has canceled classes for today, according to spokesman Mike Canizales.

About 900 customers in that area were without power as of 9 a.m., according to Entergy. The outages were down to fewer than 100 by 11:30 a.m.

Classes will resume at the normal schedule tomorrow.

Staff should report to their respective campuses by 1:00 p.m. today, according to the district.

Students who have already been picked up by the bus will be transported to their campus.

Due to long bus routes, parents can pick up students at the student’s home campus.
