Under the guidance of local emergency officials and out of an abundance of caution, JCPS will operate on a 2-hour delay on Wednesday, January 10, 2024.
Everyone is encouraged to drive with caution when traveling.

Attention Parents:
All students and staff should report to schools and campuses on a two-hour delay tomorrow, Wednesday, January 10, 2024.
There are many roads that have standing water and debris that could be unsafe for travel in the early morning hours. This delay affords safety officials the opportunity to access road conditions and receive further guidance from local emergency officials. We encourage all travelers, especially our teen drivers, to travel with caution.
School nutrition will serve breakfast upon student’s arrival. Early morning care will open two hours later than the normal start time.
