Baker Middle School in Fairborn will have early dismissal each day this week, Gene Lolli, Fairborn Superintendent, said.

News Center 7 previously reported the school made the initial announcement last week.

Hot temperatures are expected this week with highs in the upper 80s today and reaching the mid-90s throughout the week, according to Storm Center 7.

Students will be let out at 12:30 p.m. this afternoon.

They will be released at 1 p.m. the rest of the week.

The decision came as excessive heat is expected this week and Baker Middle does not have air conditioning, Lolli said.

All other Fairborn Schools will release at their regularly scheduled times.
