Parents in Paterson are looking for updates on the status of School No. 3.

Earlier this month, there was a collapse inside the building and officials called the K-8 facility unsafe for operations.

Officials said the building, which is over 120 years old, needs extensive repairs and would be closed until further notice.

Paterson school officials are scrambling to solidify plans to relocate the over 300 children enrolled at School No. 3.

Parents have expressed frustration about the situation and plan to meet with school officials on Tuesday night to get more clarity about plans for reopening.
