This is some of the material taken from Belfry Middle School after it was flooded for the first time in the school’s 72 year history. The school will remain closed until the 2009-10 school term this fall.
Belfry Middle School Principal James Hurley spoke to students and parents Monday evening to shed some light on the condition of the school and plans for the remainder of the term. However, after a visit from the Pike County Health Department on Tuesday, Hurley reported Belfry Middle and Johns Creek Elementary will be exempt from class for the rest of the year.
Due to the storms and the May 9 flooding, 21 counties and six cities in Kentucky have declared a state of emergency.
Gov. Steve Beshear has asked President Obama to declare a major disaster for impacted areas.
