The re-freeze overnight has created some hazardous neighborhood roads in several parts of our district. Because of this, Edmond Public Schools will remain closed and have a snow day for all schools for Thursday, January 29th. More information will follow regarding activities and athletic events.
There are no remote learning expectations for our students today. The instructional time missed today will need to be made up, so employees on 240 and 245 day contracts should report to work or use 50/50 leave today. We will share information about how today’s missed instructional time will be made up as soon as possible.
We are aware parts of the district have clear roads, but as you know our district covers a large area and neighborhood conditions are very different depending on where you are. We have been working tirelessly since Sunday to get our buildings back open as quickly as possible, but safety continues to be our top priority. While many roads around the district are in good shape, the re-freeze overnight and early morning drizzle has created slick spots that make it unsafe for our buses.
Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support.

Because of continued hazardous neighborhood roads around our district and slick and dangerous parking lots and sidewalks at many of our schools, Edmond Public Schools will remain closed and have a snow day for all schools for Wednesday, January 28th. All activities and athletic events are also canceled.
There are no remote learning expectations for our students and staff members should not report to work.
Our Operations Team has been working since Sunday and will continue working to get our buildings ready to welcome back our students and staff members as soon as it is safe to have school. Even though the temperatures have stayed at or below freezing, the sun is helping these efforts! We are hopeful we’ll be able to return to school on Thursday.

⛽️ In connection with Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the Black Student Union (BSU) from Memorial High School went to Luther, OK to visit the Threatt Filling Station. It is a historic stop along Route 66, and this visit was hosted by Edward Threatt, a descendant of Allen Threatt Sr., who constructed the station in 1915.
A few football players from the University of Central Oklahoma visited first graders at Frontier to talk about the Word of the Week at Frontier: Cooperation. Students learned how important it is to work together when trying to achieve a goal. 🙌 #ShineYourLight
