BAYTOWN — The Goose Creek Independent School District announced Monday that school will reopen on Thursday, September 29. The district had previously announced that it would be closed on Monday and Tuesday but decided to add another day so that families would be given time to travel back home and staff members would have more time to prepare for the reopening of school.

“Because many of our employees and students live in or evacuated to areas that were affected by the hurricane, we hope that this additional day will give them adequate time to travel home safely," Goose Creek Superintendent Barbara Sultis in a press release." In addition, many of our bus drivers generously participated in transporting residents out of town during the evacuation effort, and we want to allow them sufficient time to drive back to town and prepare to transport our students on Thursday."
