“Heavy rains in Port Arthur have resulted in localized flooding making it difficult to travel to the Lamar State College-Port Arthur campus,” LSC-PA spokesman Gerry Dickert said. “All classes are being dismissed as of 11 a.m. Tuesday, June 19. Students who have afternoon or night classes today should not come to campus.”

Port Arthur ISD also canceled summer school activities Tuesday, citing heavy rains.

“The city of Port Arthur has be inundated with heavy rains which has lead to flooding in some areas. Due to the inclement weather, parents can pick up their children, if it is permissible to do so,” the district said.

“For those students that cannot be picked up, we will continue to keep them inside of our buildings where it is safe. We will dismiss at the regular time, but due to the weather, the buses may be slightly delayed to ensure the safe arrival of all students as they travel home,” PAISD said.
