We understand that our decision to delay or close school in bad weather has a big impact on families. We also understand that our students are better served academically and socially by being in school. As always, our top priority is the safety of our students on the bus, walking, or driving to school. 

Our Superintendent, Director of Operations, Assistant Superintendent, and Assistant Director of Operations begin monitoring the weather between 4:30 and 5:00 a.m., and then they drive various routes throughout the district to document the weather.

Weather radar, radio, and TV stations are monitored, and contact with other area superintendents is extremely important in this process to see if weather conditions are different and changing in our county school areas. Once a decision is made, it is relayed to our staff members, FCS families through the Remind platform, our website, and local radio and TV stations.

Although we do our absolute best, we know that often there is no perfect decision. The fact that our high school and middle schools start earlier than our elementary schools makes our decisions extremely difficult when ice or fog are involved. Please use your best judgment if you do not feel that it is safe for your child to attend school.
