North High: No Signs of Flooding on 1st Floor

The school district's facility management director was able to make a brief visit to North High School a little earlier this morning, thanks to the Des Moines Police Department. He reports that there was no sign of flooding on the first floor of the school building.

However, we were not able to inspect lower levels of the building, such as the basement/tunnels or auditorium. In addition, we do not know when regular access to the building will be allowed in order to put services such as telecommunications back online.

DMPS officials will be meeting later today to review the status of our facilities and programs. An update and a reminder of any changes to our summer programs will be released later this afternoon.
