Adams Middle School Closed Monday

WEYMOUTH, MA - February break will go a day longer for students at Adams Middle School.

Principal Matthew Meehan announced Saturday that several burst pipes have caused flooding in three areas of the school. The areas affected are the fitness center, main office and basement level classrooms.

“Director of maintenance, central administration, Adams staff and several restoration contractors have been working day and night to repair and clean all of the damaged areas. Based upon preliminary test results of the building and the extensive damage, additional time is needed to restore classrooms and ensure rooms are safe and ready for student use,” Meehan said in a statement.

Further testing of the facility will be completed on Monday morning, along with a final sign off from the Board of Health.

As it stands, the building will be reopened Tuesday. If more time is needed, an announcement will be made Monday night.
