The Sachem Central School District will be closed on Thursday, Nov. 1 and Friday, Nov. 2, according to Superintendent James Nolan.

Sachem has been closed since Monday due to Hurricane Sandy and its wide spread damage and power outages.

The Sachem Central School District hopes all of its residents, students, staff and faculty are safe. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your loved ones during this difficult time.
