Please be advised that we have had a water main break at 9:00 AM that has affected Topsail Annandale Elementary, Topsail Middle School, and Topsail High School. Those schools will be working on notifying all families on next steps as we work to send students home for the rest of the day. Elementary and Middle Schools will be released first, followed shortly by the High Schools. However, car riders can be picked up at any time.
Our main priority is to ensure the safety and well-being of all students until they are safely at home.
More information will be forthcoming as we learn more about the break and if it will impact our schools in the coming days. If you have any questions, please reach out to the individual schools concerning dismissal.
