Inclement Weather Update: Feb. 19, 2025
Dear Families, Faculty, and Staff,
A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect for portions of Hanover County until 6 p.m. tomorrow, and our team continues to carefully evaluate conditions. Snow accumulation is expected to continue throughout this afternoon and evening, and another round of snow is forecasted for tomorrow, creating ongoing hazardous driving conditions. This includes for our buses, student drivers, families, and staff.
As a result,
HCPS will be CLOSED on Thursday, February 20. Employees use Code 6. At the earliest possible time, only designated emergency personnel report to work. All other employees work remotely as able.
We understand this is disruptive and sincerely appreciate your patience as we work to make the best possible decisions for our students and staff. We hope that sharing this information well in advance is helpful to you as you begin to make the necessary arrangements.
As a reminder,
tomorrow’s school closure (the 10th this school year) does not require an adjustment to the 2024-25 school calendar, so remote learning is not necessary. However, the next inclement weather day (the 11th this school year) would be another Remote Learning Day. More information regarding the 2024-25 calendar and school closures will be shared soon.
Please be assured that we will continue to closely evaluate the forecast and conditions and will communicate any further school delays or closings that may be necessary as quickly as possible.
As always, we appreciate your support. Thank you.
Stay safe and warm,
Hanover County Public Schools
