Schools are closed Friday, Jan. 10, 2025 for students & instructional staff. 12-month staff should report at 10am or use liberal leave. We appreciate the state, county, & town employees working to clear the roads. Despite their best efforts, high winds & frigid temperatures continue to make roads unsafe for school bus travel. As always, we will provide updates as needed through all SCPS communication channels.
