School buildings will open at 10:00 a.m. for staff who choose to report. There will be no classes for students.
To support our families, free take-out lunch will be available for students at Southern Middle School from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we navigate these weather-related conditions. Please continue to monitor district communications for any additional updates.
Students and staff will not report to school buildings. Teachers have provided assignments and materials for students to complete independently. These activities are designed so that internet access is not required and students should use the materials already sent home or previously shared by their teacher.
Students should complete their assigned work according to teacher directions and return it as instructed when school resumes.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support of Person County Shools.
Reminder: There will be no school on Monday, January 19th (Martin Luther King, Jr. Day).
