Habersham County Schools on 3-Hour Delay Tuesday

The following is a statement from the Habersham County School District:

 

“Governor Kemp has delayed the opening of all state offices tomorrow morning due to the likelihood of black ice across much of the state. He has also urged school systems to monitor the situation closely.

Rain will end around midnight and then temperatures will fall to below freezing very quickly.  Due to the threat of widespread black ice, all Habersham County schools will be on a 3 hour delay on Tuesday.

School system officials will be out checking conditions in the morning.  If ice is found close to the time buses are supposed to run we will then move to close schools.  If there is ice in the morning it will likely hang around in shaded areas since temperatures will stay in the 30s all day tomorrow.

We urge everyone to use caution in the morning if you must drive.  Parents should prepare now for the possibility of the 3 hour delay turning into a closure.”
