Shelby County Schools – CLosings and Delays

Just released from the official website: All Shelby County Schools will be CLOSED Monday, January 10, 2011 due to inclement weather.

In making the decision to close schools, the superintendent considers many factors including the following relative to the fundamental concern for the safety and health of children:

1. Weather conditions, both existing and predicted;
2. Driving, traffic, and parking conditions, affecting public and private transportation facilities;
3. Actual occurrence or imminent possibility of any emergency condition which would make the operation of schools difficult or dangerous;
4. Inability of teaching personnel to report for duty which might result in inadequate supervision of students.

In the event schools are closed due to inclement weather or other calamity, all extra-curricular activities scheduled for those days will be canceled or postponed.
