Lakeland Copper Beech Middle School in Yorktown Heights will remain closed to in-person learning and will continue with remote learning through the end of this week, according to a post on the school's Facebook page.

It stems from pipe damage due to the extreme cold weather earlier this week.

Copper Beech Families,

As mentioned in Dr. Gagliardi’s communication, due to significant pipe damage caused by the extreme cold weather, Lakeland Copper Beech Middle School will remain closed to in-person learning and will continue with remote learning through the end of this week. Our primary goal is to return to in-person learning on February 23rd. However, if conditions don't allow for a safe return by that date, we will continue with remote learning as our most reliable path forward.

Thursday, February 12th, is a D day and Friday, February 13th is an A Day.

Students will follow their regular schedule and will report to Google Meets with their teachers for remote instruction. This will follow the same procedures that we held for remote instruction throughout this week. Attendance will be taken each period.

I want to thank you for your continued patience and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email me, your House Assistant Principal or your child’s teacher/counselor directly.

Frank Ruolo

Principal
