One Glitch Mars An Otherwise Smooth First Day Of School

Today was the first day of classes for students in the Hamilton Southeastern (HSE) School Corporation, and only one mishap disturbed an otherwise smooth day.

Students showing up for the first day of classes at Fishers High School found about half the building without power Wednesday morning.  The problem was quickly found and fixed, allowing classes to go on for most of the day.  School officials said a blown fuse resulted in transformer problems.

With roughly 21,000  students, HSE is the fourth largest school system in the state of Indiana.

Meanwhile, Fishers Police Chief George Kehl issued a statement earlier in the week, urging local motorists to use extra caution as classes begin for another school year.
