Uvalde CISD School Closure Announcement for Tuesday, January 21, 2025
Due to the National Weather Service’s forecast of winter precipitation and potentially hazardous conditions from Monday night through Tuesday morning, Uvalde CISD will cancel all school operations on Tuesday, January 21, 2025. Our top priority is the safety of our students, staff, and school community, and we aim to prevent any risks associated with travel and outdoor exposure during this period.
Commitment to Education
Uvalde CISD remains steadfast in its commitment to quality education and student support. Although we prioritize the safety of our school community, we are dedicated to ensuring that educational opportunities continue when conditions are safe.
Wednesday School Schedule
Our team will begin assessing road conditions on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, as early as 5:00 a.m. We will thoroughly evaluate roads across the community to ensure safe travel. If some routes, such as overpasses, are inaccessible, we will explore alternative safe bus routes.
- Decision Timeline:
- If severe weather persists, the decision to close or delay school will be made by 4:00 p.m. the day prior. If conditions improve, the decision will be made as early as possible in the morning, with notifications sent by 6:00 a.m. on the school day.
- Communication:
- Once a decision is reached, we will communicate through email, our District website at www.ucisd.net, social media, and local media outlets to ensure comprehensive coverage.
Families are encouraged to take necessary precautions during severe weather to ensure safety. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we navigate this winter weather together. We appreciate your continued support of our students and school community.
