L W Young Junior High School will be closed today due to urgent plumbing repairs that need to be made to the school, officials said.

“As it is policy that schools have proper functioning bathroom facilities, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and other agencies will work feverishly to correct the problem in the shortest possible time so that school can resume as promptly as possible,” a statement from the Ministry of Education said.

Officials did not say when the school will reopen.
