Overnight, we are expecting weather conditions that may impact the morning commute. Our team is closely monitoring the forecast and will coordinate with local DPWs early in the morning to assess road conditions. While we anticipate no disruptions to school operations, any decision to delay the start of school will be communicated by 5:30 a.m. tomorrow.
