WARWICK, NY — Warwick Valley High School is closed Tuesday for both in-person and remote learning.

A power outage caused by a blown transformer is the reason, school officials said.

The outage is isolated to the high school, so it will not impact the district's other schools or students who attend morning or afternoon Career and Technical Education classes, according to information on the school's website.
