News & Announcements
MESSAGE FOR CRITTENDEN FAMILIES On Thursday afternoon, January 14, a piece of equipment outdoors used by the roofing contractor malfunctioned. There were no students in the area near the contractors at the time of the incident. The equipment caused some smoke to enter the breezeway near the 6th grade wing. Students and staff were immediately evacuated and the Newport News Fire Department was dispatched. No one was injured.
The Fire Marshal inspected the building and, a short time later, deemed it safe for re-entry.
The roofing contractors were performing limited, non hazardous, work during school hours. The contractors now will NOT be performing ANY work during school hours.
