A local teacher who was among those honored at the White House this week returned to Detroit to a house with no running water.
Cass Tech dance teacher Mayowa Lisa Reynolds — who was in Washington D.C. being honored along with other educators from around the country — says she had been paying her bill online and admits being late, but says she never received a shut-off notice.
“I didn’t get anything in writing,” Reynolds said. “I’m supposed to know that I was late the previous month.”
Reynolds said she had to take a day off — the same day teachers were due back in classrooms following a two-day work stoppage.
She and her husband went to a Detroit Water and Sewerage Department office to sort out the matter.
