Due to the pending snow and dangerous cold Lincoln Public Schools has announced a School Closure Day for Wednesday and a District Closure Day for Thursday. “This is not an easy decision for us to make so far out, but all of the forecasts and information from experts suggests the timing of this storm will impact our students and staff as they leave school on Wednesday,” says LPS Superintendent Paul Gausman.
“We know that school closures can cause hardships for families and our community. We have to consider the forecasted timing of the winter storm in combination with all of the hazardous winter weather conditions our staff, students and families could encounter across the approximately 100 square miles our school district spans.”
The School Closure Day on Wednesday means all classes and activities are canceled. The District Closure Day on Thursday means that all LPS buildings will be closed, in addition to all classes and activities being canceled. More information will be sent soon to high school families about plans for first semester finals.
