The news comes amid flash flood warnings in Southern California, which also was hit with a magnitude 5.1 earthquake on Sunday afternoon.
A TV Writer's Plea in Wake of LGBTQ Confrontations: Don't Let Hate Groups Flor-nicate California Schools“Los Angeles Unified is making the difficult decision to close all of our schools, campuses and after-school programs tomorrow, Monday, Aug. 21,” the district added in a tweet. “Students and families: please do not come to your school campus. This was not an easy decision.”
LAUSD noted that with the peak of the storm expected around midnight, that did not give the district “enough time for our staff to adequately inspect our facilities. In addition, we are expecting winds which may adversely impact our transportation network and system, putting students and employees at risk.”
They added that downed power lines and impassible roads, combined with forthcoming flooding, are causing “major safety hazards.” Lest students think they are getting a free day off, the district added that teachers are being asked to post activities and resources on the Schoology app by 10:30 a.m. Monday morning.
