There was no water today at Rome Middle or Rome High due to a broken valve during construction last night.  The CO was aware of this problem very early this morning, but still kept the schools open.  The students were told they could use the bathroom, but not to flush.  There are students saying that the conditions were more than gross as the day went on.  But, the more pressing issue seems to be the lack of a sprinkler system with that many students in the two buildings.  You would think that someone in the school system would have recognized what a nightmare this could have been, and how nasty it actually was.

That is unreal!   What a "nasty" mess.   Do they not realize how unsanitary that is for those teachers and students!   You would think they would have more care and consideration than that. :furious:

I am guessing that there is a fire code policy that covers ....as for the stench....I would have gotten my kids out if I had any there......

Does anybody know if they did anything? They could have brought water to the school in a tanker to flush with.

Hope someone gets on Coopers butt on this one. Should have bussed the kids to central office for rest room relief, or had cooper and staff work from the schools that day.

A REALLY BAD DECISION!!!!

I talked to a parent of a student there. They permitted any student who wanted to leave with a parent or in their own vehicle to leave as long as the student had permission. From what I here, a lot of students left because they needed to leave and others did because they could. This parent thought the administration did a great job of handling the situation and that problems were minimal.

Ninety percent of the population can go 8 hours without the need of water.

Until someone says, "there's no water".

Then 90 percent of the population will die if it doesn't do something, anything that has something, anything to do with water.

Go figure, eh?
