📢 School Closure Update 📢
Due to freezing temperatures again overnight affecting the melting snow and ice, making travel unsafe for our buses, students, and staff, Brooks County Schools will remain closed on Friday, January 24th.
Our team will be out over the weekend checking the structural integrity of our awnings, sidewalks and walkways to ensure our campuses are safe for students and staff. The ice that is melting will continue to gather on our sidewalks and parking lot and will refreeze again tonight. Many of the roads in our county are still questionable as to whether they are passable for buses.
❄️ We appreciate your patience and understanding as safety remains our top priority. Normal schedules will resume on Monday, January 27th. Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy your extended snow break! ⛄️✨
