Students at Twin Rivers Elementary School will return to class on Wednesday, one day after being sent home due to a water main break.

McKeesport Area School District announced Tuesday evening that water service to the school on Cornell Street has been fully restored and that normal operations have resumed.

Pupils were dismissed at 12:15 p.m. Tuesday after a water line break in the 2300 block of Oak Street. Crews from Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County were repairing the break on Tuesday afternoon.

The school district notified parents just before 11 a.m. of the early dismissal.
