Due to the winter storm that moved into Lincoln on Thursday, Lincoln Public Schools has announced Friday will be a District Closure day. All classes and activities are canceled and all LPS buildings will be closed on Friday.
“This afternoon proved once again that Nebraska weather can change in an instant,” says LPS Superintendent John Skretta. “We recognize that district closures can cause hardships for families and our community, however we also have to consider safety. Our crews need time once the storm subsides to clear school grounds and ensure safe school campuses.”
Information about LPS severe weather policy and closure can be found on the LPS website. Lincoln is under a winter storm warning until 6:00 Friday morning. According to the 10/11 Severe Weather Team forecast, about 3-6″ of snow is expected through late Thursday night.
