Featuring the RCSD: How some schools prepared students for the eclipse - ABC News - abcnews.go.com/US/live-update… via ABC News

More than 31 million Americans live in the so-called “Path of Totality,” where next week’s total solar eclipse will be in view — and plenty more Americans will travel to experience the rare event.

Nancy Chen visited Rochester, New York to see how the city is preparing.

We are waiting for the water quality test results from the County, which will not be finalized until early morning.

If the Boil Water Advisory is not lifted, we will close schools tomorrow, and you will receive a notification in the morning. As of now, no decision has been made.

ALL CITY R-CENTERS WILL BE OPEN NOON TO 7 P.M. WEDNESDAY.

THE TRENTON AND PAMELA JACKSON R-CENTER AND THE DAVID F. GANTT R-CENTER, 10 A.M. TO 7 P.M.

WE ARE PARTNERING TO PROVIDE GRAB-AND-GO LUNCHES. R-CENTERS ARE ADHERING BOIL WATER ADVISORY BY DISTRIBUTING BOTTLED WATER.

On #NationalGoodSamaritanDay I'd like to shoutout 6th grader Az'Ryel from Charles Carroll School No. 46. His bravery and generosity have earned him this recognition and I'm so glad Rochester City School District has him as a young role model!
