Parents,
The DSD would like to inform you that we are aware of the water situation that is scheduled to take place in the city tomorrow, May 12th. We will collaborate with the City of Dermott and Mayor Donald with updates throughout the day. If we have to dismiss school, we will inform you in a timely manner. According to the City of Dermott's Facebook page, the water well at the city shop will be offline all day tomorrow to allow the contractor to move the controls to a new location. The city does not anticipate any pressure problems, but to be on the safe side, you may want to fill up a few containers of water. The moving of the controls should be completed by the close of business day at the city tomorrow. Again, the DSD will be open and we will keep you updated.
