Water main break impacts schools in Jeff City district

Hundreds of Jefferson City homes, and many businesses and schools, are under a boil advisory.

The contractor working at the old St. Mary’s Hospital site apparently cut a water main. It forced the boil order at spots like Jefferson City High, and Thorpe Gordon, East, and South elementary schools. The district had already scheduled a half day.

Missouri American Water crews have fixed the break, but the boil order is in place until 6:00 p.m. Thursday. The list of areas affected is on Missouri American’s website.
