Sonoma County school districts announce Thursday closures

The Sonoma County Office of Education said all schools in the Geyserville Unified School District and some schools in the Rincon Valley Union School District and Santa Rosa City Schools will be closed Thursday because of PG&E’s Public Safety Power Shutoff.

The Rincon Valley Union School District will close Whited, Binkley, Madrone, Austin Creek and Sequoia elementary schools and Rincon Valley Charter School’s Sequoia campus.

Santa Rosa City Schools will close Hidden Valley Elementary School, Santa Rosa Accelerated Charter School, Rincon Valley Middle School and Maria Carrillo High School.

The Sonoma County Office of Education said it receives official closure reports from superintendents only and it does not determine whether a school should be closed.
