San Antonio Schools Brace for Winter Weather Closures

San Antonio is getting ready for some colder days ahead as various school districts prepare to tackle the anticipated winter weather that is forecasted from January 6-10, 2025. With gusty winds and chilly temperatures on the horizon, students and parents need to stay informed about what’s happening with classes in the area.

Gusty Winds and Freezing Temperatures Coming Our Way

Friday morning is shaping up to be quite windy, with gusts reaching as high as 30 mph. To add to the chill, wind chill values are expected to dive into the 20s and 30s. Get ready for temperatures to plummet into the upper 20s in San Antonio and even the low 20s in the Hill Country. It’s safe to say that warm jackets and cozy hats will be making a comeback!

Delayed Starts and Cancellations

Most area school districts are currently planning to hold classes as scheduled on Friday, January 10, 2025. However, there are some exceptions. North East ISD students will have a delayed start, with students reporting by 9:30 a.m. and staff by 9 a.m.. Similarly, Mason County’s Mason ISD and Zavala County’s Crystal City ISD are also delaying their start times, so students should check with their schools for the latest updates.

While many are moving forward with classes, Comfort ISD in Kendall County has chosen to cancel classes entirely due to the severe weather conditions. Safety first, right? Judson ISD has also opted to cancel all after-school activities after 5 p.m. on Thursday night due to the unpredictable weather. Parents should keep an eye on communications from their districts concerning any further changes.

Operations Update for Other Districts

On a more positive note, Northside ISD and East Central ISD currently do not have any major concerns about freezing precipitation impacting road conditions. Schools like Alamo Heights, East Central, and Edgewood are continuing with their normal schedules. They are reminding students to dress warmly and prepare for the cold weather as they head to school.

Meanwhile, Hays CISD reports that they do not plan to alter their typical schedule based on the latest forecasts, so families can stick to their regular routines. It’s great to see many districts prioritizing regular attendance and emphasizing safe travel for students.

Preparation is Key

With the arctic air moving in, several school districts are advising families to prepare warm clothing and any essentials needed for commutes during this cold snap. It’s always a good idea to pack those extra gloves and scarves, just in case!
