NEWS RELEASE

SIMCOE MUSKOKA CATHOLIC DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD

*************************
The Good Shepherd Catholic School in Barrie is currently without heat and with low temperatures forecasted for Thursday, Oct. 27, a decision has been made by the Director of Education to close the school.

This includes before and after school childcare run by SEEDS. 

Board staff has worked to repair two boilers at the school and it was determined late on Wednesday evening that the boilers are unrepairable and replacement parts are needed in order to be operational.

Until the boilers are repaired the school will be too cold for a learning environment for students and staff.

It is anticipated that the boilers will be repaired in time for the school to be reopened on Friday, Oct. 28.

Updates will be provided on the school's website at smcdsb.on.ca/gsh
