With winter weather in the forecast, many school districts have called off classes on Tuesday, including Springfield Public Schools.
The R-12 district issued this statement on social media:
Springfield Public Schools will be closed Tuesday, Jan. 9, 2024, due to winter weather and the forecast for slick roads, especially during the afternoon commute. District offices will remain open. Both seated classes and live virtual instruction have been canceled. Information about activity and athletic cancellations will be shared via the district’s Facebook and Twitter accounts. For more information, visit the district’s website at sps.org.
Please note the following work expectations for SPS employees on Jan. 9:
District offices will remain open and office staff will work remotely.
Operations and custodial staff will receive direction from their supervisors.
All nine-month staff who do not typically report on inclement weather days will be paid for the day (although they are not expected to report and are not able to work remotely).
Questions should be referred to your direct supervisor or to Human Resources.
