Precautionary Water Safety Protocol: As a precautionary measure, the East Haddam School District is required by the Connecticut Department of Public Health to follow a well water safety protocol, due to the loss of power and well water pressure to the schools. This precautionary protocol insures that all school drinking water remains safe and contaminant-free. While we are taking these required precautionary measures, all elementary and middle school students and staff will be provided with bottled water throughout the first few days of school.
