Murfreesboro City Schools Inclement Weather Update:

Due to the extreme cold and single-digit temperatures during morning pickup, we will operate on a two-hour delay tomorrow, Wednesday, January 22. Temperatures are forecast to increase quickly as the sun comes up, and this delay will allow temperatures to rise for students and staff.

Morning bus pick up times and school start times will shift by two hours. ESP will follow their inclement weather policy and open from 7 a.m. - 6 p.m. tomorrow.

Breakfast will only be served to students attending ESP.

No transportation will be provided for half-day integrated Pre-k students.

A message to parents will be sent in the next few minutes.

AND…

Hello parents,

This is James Evans with Rutherford County Schools, and we want to inform you about the plan for Wednesday.

We don’t normally close school solely for cold temperatures, but the temperature is expected to be close to zero for the first part of tomorrow morning. These types of conditions are unusual for our area.

Many of our schools rely on portable classrooms and it is difficult to maintain optimal heat in these buildings when the outside temperatures are in the low single digits. Bus stops are also a concern.

We have debated opening two hours late, but we know everyone hates those days because it greatly disrupts schedules for parents and schools alike.

We also have seven inclement weather days in reserve, and the National Weather Service forecasters are calling for a warmer stretch after tomorrow’s cold weather advisory.

So with all that being said, Director of Schools Jimmy Sullivan has decided to close all Rutherford County schools for Wednesday, January 22, 2025. The district’s central office will open at the normal time and school-based custodians will report to work at their regularly scheduled time.

We know a day out of school is inconvenient for parents, but we also want to ensure safety.
