Weather Update

After careful assessment of conditions, Lamar CISD will RESUME normal district and school operations on Tuesday, January 27 (schools are open).

While road conditions are safe for travel, temperatures will remain low in the morning hours. We encourage families to allow extra time for travel and to ensure students are dressed appropriately for the cold, including warm layers, jackets, and gloves as needed. We understand that adjustments may be needed as everyone returns, and we are committed to ensuring a smooth transition back to our regular schedule.

We recognize that weather decisions can bring a range of perspectives. As always, families know their individual circumstances best and may make the decision that is right for their household. If your child will be absent, please follow your campus attendance procedures.

Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to welcoming our students and staff back to school.

"I've been around educators all of my life. This has taught me that the success of our schools is directly tied to the teachers that we recruit and retain. They are the ones who inspire and help students apply academic knowledge to every day life.

Also, I'm concerned about the financial burden shouldered by taxpayers. There should always be a healthy balance regarding the money LCISD collects via property taxes with the wants/needs of the schools."
