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
