❄️ KCS Weather Update - Remote Learning ❄️
Due to snow that is forecasted to begin falling by mid-morning and making dismissal unsafe, Kanawha County Schools is going to err on the side of caution and use our last remote learning day tomorrow, Friday, February 6th.
Students should have already been given work that can be completed offline. If the work was not downloaded, it is available in Schoology. If a student is unable to access their work due to no power or internet, the work may be completed later and turned in as makeup work.
Teachers will be available during normal school hours to provide assistance as needed.
Thank you for your continued patience, flexibility, and support this week. Stay safe, stay warm, and we hope to see everyone Monday. Have a great weekend.

❄️ KCS Weather Update 2-Hour Delay ❄️
Due to poor road conditions in parts of the county, Kanawha County Schools will operate on a two-hour delay tomorrow, Thursday, February 5.
The two-hour delay allows our transportation department additional time to assess road conditions across the county and eliminates the need for an early-morning call.
There is a possibility this could change to a remote learning day. If that happens, families will receive an update Thursday morning (but not at 4:55 a.m.)
Our hope is to remain on a two-hour delay. Thank you for your patience and understanding. ❄️🚌

❄️ Huge thanks to the City of South Charleston crews who were out bright and early today clearing snow and ice from our schools in South Charleston - because winter is clearly feeling very committed this year. ☃️
They do this just about every time it snows, and we can’t say thank you enough. With more than 60 buildings across the district and snow showing up like it’s on a schedule, that extra help is a big deal.
Their support helps our KCS maintenance teams keep it moving and head on to other schools, so more sidewalks, lots, and entrances get cleared faster. Teamwork for the win. 💪❄️

❄️ 2-Hour Delay - Monday, February 2nd ☀️
KCS will operate on a two-hour delay tomorrow, Monday, February 2nd.
Temperatures aren’t expected to warm much during the delay, the purpose of the delay is to allow travel in daylight rather than early morning darkness.
Our maintenance staff has been working all weekend to clear parking lots and sidewalks, but icy spots may still be present. Please use caution getting in and out of vehicles and entering school buildings.
Some areas of the county may still have unsafe roads. Families should use their best judgment, and if travel isn’t safe, please don’t risk it. Bus route changes will be posted on the KCS website this evening and text messages will be sent out in the morning.
Staff, please report at your normal time. If you are not able to safely do so, please contact your supervisor.
We’re excited to see everyone back!

❄️ Remote Learning – Friday, January 30 ❄️
5-for-5 is great… when you’re at the plate.
This week? Not so much.
It’s been a long and chilly week, and we know everyone is ready for clearer roads and more familiar routines. We truly miss seeing our students in our classrooms and hallways!
Due to ice still covering roadways in parts of the county, KCS will continue with remote learning tomorrow, Friday January 30th. Students have offline work available, with assignments also accessible in Schoology. If power or internet is an issue, work can be completed and turned in later.
Here’s hoping the ice gives us a break this weekend so we can welcome everyone back on Monday. Stay warm and safe, KCS families 💙
