Students jump for joy after electricity turned back on at Puerto Rico school

SAN JUAN — Hurricane Maria may be a distant memory for people in north Georgia, but parts of the Caribbean are still reeling from the deadly storm.

One of the main issues Puerto Rico is dealing with is power outages.

But there are glimmers of hope when areas beginning having their electricity restored.

The school, Academia Bautista de Puerto Nuevo, served more than 1,000 students in San Juan, in grades Pre-K to 12th grade.
