SUMNER COUNTY, Tenn. (WTVF) — Sumner County schools will be closed on Tuesday, Dec. 12.

Officials say no school sustained significant damage and power has been restored to all schools in Sumner County.

However, utility workers are still working to repair utility lines and clear debris in areas of Hendersonville and Gallatin.

"We are concerned about the impact of ongoing work on bus routes and students/employees ability to get to school. We also do not want school traffic to impact utility worker's abilit to complete their efforts," Sumner County Schools said.

Schools will reopen on Wednesday, Dec. 13.

Bus drivers are asked to use caution when driving through areas with cleanup efforts, and parents are asked to have patience as traffic congestion may impact bus routes and pickup and drop-off times, Sumner County Schools say.

On 150-year anniversary, YMCA of Middle Tennessee looks at its past and future

Happy Birthday to the YMCA of Middle TN. They just celebrated their 150th anniversary! A lot has changed with the Y over the years. I have personally seen some of that firsthand when I was a long-time board member at the Northwest Family Y and part of their Black Achievers Program. Forrest Sanders has a look back.
