For the second consecutive day, Atlanta Public Schools’ summer school and programs have been canceled due to ongoing issues with water main breaks throughout the city.

The first day of APS summer school was scheduled for Monday. Now students will wait until at least Wednesday to begin the term, which tentatively ends on June 28.

WABE has asked APS for the number of students affected by the cancellation and will update this story when we hear back.
