MCPS Weather Update: Closure – Code Red – Announced for Wednesday, Feb. 12
Snow has begun falling, and we are closely monitoring its impact on our schools across the district. With forecasts predicting up to six inches of accumulation by early tomorrow morning, roads, sidewalks, and school campuses will not be safe or accessible for an on-time or delayed opening on Wednesday. However, our teams will be hard at work! Overnight and into the morning, MCPS operations crews will begin clearing snow from buses and depots while plowing, shoveling, and treating school parking lots and sidewalks. Meanwhile, our county partners will be working diligently to prepare highways and neighborhood streets to ensure safer travel conditions. This work will likely take throughout the day on Wednesday as we have 211 schools, seven bus depots and other facilities that will all need to be readied for students, staff and visitors.
