As you may know, our area is under a “winter storm warning” until 7:00 p.m. tomorrow (Friday).  Although current weather forecasts for our area vary somewhat, all seem confident that falling temperatures and mixed precipitation will occur overnight and continue through Friday morning.  Members of the district leadership team and I have been out on our area roads this evening, and snow is already falling in the higher elevations of Fannin County.

The safety of our students and staff is always the top concern; therefore, Fannin County Schools will be closed tomorrow (Friday), January 8.

If it is safe to do so, 12-month personnel will be asked to report later on January 8; this information will be announced by 9:00 a.m.  No other personnel should report on Friday, January 8.

Please stay safe!Π

Sincerely,

Michael Gwatney
