Maplewood Richmond Heights School District has canceled and rescheduled some of its events Saturday and Sunday because of staffing issues, according to MRH director of communications, Brian Adkisson, in an email to 40 South News.
Adkisson said the Maplewood Police Department couldn’t provide security at a scheduled basketball tournament, considering what’s going on in the region, so the games were canceled.
MRH was to host CBC, St. Mary’s and Carnahan in a jamboree.
“Given the heightened concern in the region this weekend, we wanted to ensure we had ample staff coverage at our evening and weekend events,” Adkisson said.
