Emergency School Closure


There will be occasions when schools must temporarily close due to inclement weather, power outages or for emergency reasons. The superintendent may make the decision to temporarily close any or all district schools when the safety of students and staff may be compromised.

Parents, students and school district staff will be informed through the school alerting system, email, FacebookTwitter & Instagram, and by notifying local media by 6:30 a.m. at the latest. Every attempt will be made to post announcements about closures on the school district website, however, power outages may interfere.

If there is no announcement on the school website /social media, please be sure to listen to one of the local radio stations:

  • 97.3 FM – The Eagle
  • 98.9 FM – The Jet
  • 100.7 FM -The Raven

No announcements by this time indicates schools are open and operating at usual.
