Good afternoon,
Due to a city water line break on Ridge Road and the water being turned off at the school, Person High bus riders will be released at 1:10 pm and car riders/student drivers will be released at 1:25 pm. Please note: Ridge Road is closed. Parents picking up car riders will need to drive up Carver Drive from the boulevard and turn right into the bus parking lot where car riders will be waiting. Car rider parents - please do not arrive at the school prior to 1:20 pm so that buses can be dismissed.
Due to the possibility of patchy ice on the roads and extremely cold temperatures/wind chills for bus riders, PCS will operate on a 2-hour delay for staff and students tomorrow, 01/17. Breakfast will not be served and daycares will open at 8 am. Please be careful and stay safe.
Happy Martin Luther King, Jr Day! No School on January 15th
Due to power outages and trees down in spots across the county, Person County Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay for students on Wednesday 01/10. This will allow time for power restoration, debris to be cleaned up, and buses to run during daylight hours. Please travel safe.
