Las Vegas students relocated after school’s air conditioner fails

Mack Middle School students were relocated to Chaparral High School on Monday after issues with air conditioning, the Clark County School District told parents.

Students who regularly ride the bus home at the end of the school day at the Las Vegas middle school were set to be transported directly from Chaparral High School to their regular bus stops, Assistant Principal Abigail Johnson wrote in a message to parents. All other students were set to be transported back to Mack, where their parents could pick them up or they could walk home.

The air conditioning issues came amid an excessive heat warning for the Las Vegas Valley.
