[GESD] Gloversville schools are closed again today 12/8/2021. The water main break has been fixed, however there is insufficient water pressure to several of our school buildings due to catastrophic water loss over the last 24 hours. The system needs time to recover.


[GESD] Gloversville schools will be closed today Tuesday December 7th due to a water main break in the city and the boiled water advisory.


If you did not receive an all-call & text message this morning from the Superintendent of Schools informing you that the district will be closed today due to a water main break, PLEASE update your contact information by calling your child's school.


The Board of Education Meeting will be held tonight at 6:30pm at the Gloversville Middle School Cafeteria. This meeting will be live-streamed to the district's Facebook page and then promptly uploaded to the GESD YouTube channel.
