GRAFTON, Mass. – Superintendent of Schools James Cummings is waiting until morning to determine whether Grafton students will return to school Tuesday.

Hurricane Sandy knocked out school Monday for Grafton students when Cummings pre-emptively made the call Sunday in response to forecasts that had the worst of the wind and rain hitting in the afternoon.

"It looks pretty good right now," Cummings said in an email. "All of the schools have power and the six closed roads are being worked on now."

Thousands of Grafton residents were without power Monday evening. The brunt of Hurricane Sandy's power is expected to leave the area around midnight.

The Daily Voice, available on computer, tablet and smartphone, will be updating with the latest local information throughout the storm. Have cancellations or storm damage photos? Email jpaluzzi@dailyvoice.com.

Still no power...

Grafton person:

What about the high schoolers who don't have power and can't charge their iPads?...

HAU:

I hope our power comes back before morning!
