Important Message From Page County Public Schools:
The School Board meeting originally scheduled for Thursday, January 9, 2025, has been canceled due to hazardous road conditions across the division. The next scheduled School Board meeting will take place on Thursday, January 23, 2025, at Page County High School, starting at 6:30 p.m. Thank you for your understanding.
Given the very low temperatures this evening and the icy conditions on many roads across the division, all PCPS schools will be closed on Thursday, January 9, 2025. All 12-month staff report at 10:00am. All afternoon and evening events and activities are cancelled, including the School Board meeting that was scheduled for Thursday evening.
We understand that some people may feel frustrated that students have not yet returned to school. We absolutely want them back and cannot wait to see them! However, when road conditions do not allow for the safe transport of students, we, as a division, must prioritize safety and err on the side of caution. While roads near your home may appear clear, school cancellations indicate that roads in other parts of Page County are unsafe for buses and student travel. Decisions affecting the entire school system are made based on the condition of all roads across the county, not just a few areas.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support of PCPS. We look forward to seeing students back in school as soon as it is safe to do so.
We hope that everyone is staying safe and warm!

Thank you and we hope that everyone continues to stay safe and warm.

Good evening PCPS Faculty, Staff and Families,
PCPS is monitoring the weather that is expected throughout the evening and the day tomorrow, to include the wind advisory issued for our area. At this time, we are advising everyone to prepare in the event that school may have to be delayed, canceled, or students dismissed early if conditions deteriorate throughout the day. If any changes to tomorrow morning’s schedule are needed, they will be made and communicated by 5:30am. At this time (7:00 p.m. on Wed., Dec. 4, 2024), school is starting on time tomorrow, Thursday, December 5, 2024.
We also are reminding everyone that while conditions in one part of the county may seem okay, they may be hazardous in other parts of the county - we have to consider all elevations, all road types and all locations, especially those where our buses travel. Decisions are made for the entire school division as a whole based on the safety of all. Weather is unpredictable and we make the best decisions we can with the information and forecasts we have at the time. There are times when we get it right and there are times when we do not. However, we will always make decisions out of abundance of caution and err on the side of student and staff safety. Always!
We thank you in advance for your continued patience as we work to ensure the safety of everyone.
Thank you and have a good evening!
