HPS 2-Hour Delay & Hard Surface Routes – Thursday, February 20
Due to extreme wind chills expected to reach advisory levels below -15°F, HPS will operate on a 2-hour delay on Thursday, February 20, 2025. Additionally, all buses will be on hard surface routes only. If any additional decisions are determined, this will be communicated by 7:30am on 2/20.
Key Adjustments for the Day:
-Buses will pick up students two hours later than usual. (EX. If your pick up time is usually 6:30am, it will now be 8:30am)
-School start times will be delayed by two hours, with dismissal at the normal time.
-No morning preschool.
-No morning activities or practices.
-School dismissal will remain at the normal time when school is delayed.
HPS remains committed to keeping schools open as often as safely possible, ensuring students have a warm, supportive environment for learning. Please use your best judgment when deciding if travel is safe for your family.
Stay warm and be safe,
Susan Johnson
Superintendent

Thank you for your patience and understanding during weather events. Canceling school is never an easy call to make, but as always, the safety of our students, staff, and families remains our top priority.
We want to also thank our local state, city, and county road crews and the HPS custodial and maintenance teams for their hard work this week and through all challenging winter weather events.
