Weatherford Independent School District Home

Weatherford ISD administrators have monitored roads throughout our school district today. With the forecast calling for temperature to be below freezing through mid-morning tomorrow, we don’t expect road conditions to improve for our students, staff, buses, and families to travel safely to school tomorrow. While some roads may be safe for travel, many of the rural and residential roads are expected to remain covered in ice.

The safety of our students, parents, and staff remains our highest priority. As a result, Weatherford ISD will be closed on Friday, January 10, 2025. Evening activities have also been canceled.

We’ll see everyone back at school on Monday, January 13, 2025.

When bad weather is predicted, administrators pay close attention to forecasts, stay in touch with our District meteorologist, stay in close contact with neighboring school district administrators, and monitor road conditions in order to make the best decision for the safety and security of students, staff, and families.

The following factors are considered when we make a decision that alters the normal school schedule:

• Information on road conditions and whether buses/cars can safely travel
• The existing accumulation of snow or ice
• The rate and expected duration of precipitation
• Parking lot and sidewalk conditions
• Weather predictions

The safety of our families and staff will always be our top priority when we are faced with decisions about school closings due to weather.

Weatherford ISD and its campuses now use ParentSquare to communicate with families through email, text, phone call and app messages!

With ParentSquare, families can choose what methods they want to receive communication through. By default, all families will receive digest – or recap – email and text messages at 6 p.m. daily, eliminating the clutter caused by dozens of messages.

All families are sent registration emails at the start of the school year, but they can also register without this message. Families can visit www.parentsquare.com/signin to register with either the email or phone number they have on file with their child’s school.
