Winters School Pawtucket Has Delay In Start Of School Year

A Pawtucket school's opening is being delayed by a week.

Henry Winters Elementary is not starting classes until next Tuesday.

The school on Central Avenue went through a two-year, 49-million-dollar renovation effort.

Mayor Donald Grebien said there are a number of health and safety items that still need to be addressed.

Grebien apologized to the impacted families, and said the lack of notice from the school department was unacceptable.
