School Closure - Friday, October 9, 2026

After careful consultation with local emergency management officials and continuous monitoring of weather conditions associated with Hurricane Isaias, the District has made the decision to close all schools and district facilities on Friday, October 9, 2026. All school activities, athletic events, extracurricular programs, and after-school functions scheduled for Thursday, October 8, 2026 are still allowed. 

Any activities scheduled for Friday are canceled. District officials will continue to monitor conditions closely and will work with local emergency management agencies to determine when it is safe to resume normal operations.

 We currently anticipate reopening on Monday, October 12, 2026, pending weather impacts, road conditions, utility restoration, and safety assessments. 

Updates will be communicated through: 

• District website 

• District social media platforms 

• Parent Square

We encourage all families and employees to follow the guidance of local emergency officials, review their emergency preparedness plans, and avoid unnecessary travel during severe weather conditions. Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and commitment to keeping our school community safe. Our thoughts are with all those who may be impacted by this storm. 

Hunter Nolen, 

Superintendent
