After three straight snow days, Fairfax County Public Schools will open on a two-hour delay on Friday, Jan. 24.
From FCPS:
Morning preschool (special education) classes are canceled.
Afternoon preschool (special education) classes start on their regular schedule.
Full-day preschool (special education) and Family and Early Childhood Education Program/Head Start classes start two hours later than the regular schedule.
Morning field trips are canceled.
SACC centers will be open by 7:15 a.m.
Morning transportation for high school academy classes is canceled. Afternoon academy transportation will be provided.
Adult and community education classes will start on time.
FCPS’ primary concern is always student safety when making a decision about opening or delaying schools. In addition to considering information from a range of public safety sources, FCPS transportation supervisors travel the routes our buses would traverse and inspect bus stops and the pathways that will be used by walkers. When there are areas in the county that are considered unsafe or treacherous, schools are closed.
