Although, the majority of Fillmore woke up to outages Wednesday morning, including students who were returning to school from winter break. The school district released the following statement on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/FUSDDistrict Wednesday morning:

FUSD School Community,

Due to the high winds, Southern California Edison has shut off power at all of our school sites. We are prepared to keep all of our schools open today.

Each school will have one dedicated line for families to use if they need to contact their child’s school. All school offices will also have access to email. See phone numbers below.

The Child Nutrition Services Department will serve all students breakfast and lunch.

Site custodians and MOT staff will monitor all school grounds throughout the day.

All students will be safely in classrooms with teachers and we will utilize natural light.

We realize that each family will make the best decision on whether or not to send their child to school today. Therefore, there will be no attendance penalty for absences for today.

Please know our schools are safe and we are ready to welcome back students this morning.
We appreciate your flexibility and support as weather conditions continue to change.

Sincerely,

Christine Schieferle

Superintendent
