Hello Pampa ISD families,
After closely monitoring the weather and consulting updated forecasts, we have determined that snow and ice will continue overnight, creating hazardous travel conditions for Friday morning. To prioritize the safety of our students, staff, and families, Pampa ISD will be closed tomorrow, Friday, January 10th.
We understand that school closures can disrupt family schedules, and this decision was not made lightly. However, we believe this is the safest course of action.
Please stay safe during these winter conditions. We will provide updates through our usual communication channels if there are further impacts to school schedules.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Enjoy the snow day!
Pampa ISD Administration
The safety of our students and staff is always our top priority. Our administration has been closely monitoring the weather since yesterday evening. At that time, forecasts indicated only a slight possibility of snow, and we made the decision to proceed with a regular school day based on the best information available.
However, as the day has progressed, weather conditions have changed more rapidly than anticipated, and snow accumulation is now affecting travel in our area. Out of an abundance of caution, we have decided to implement an early release today, January 9th. Elementary campuses will release at 12:00 p.m. and Pampa Junior High and Pampa High School will release at 12:40 pm.
Please be assured that buses will operate on their adjusted schedules to transport students home safely. We will continue to monitor the weather throughout the day and evening and provide an update this evening by 8:00 PM with our plans for school tomorrow.
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we work to respond to these evolving conditions. Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.
