Due to the additional snow and ice on roads and sidewalks throughout Jefferson County, JCPS will utilize a Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) day on Wednesday, February 4, 2026. Students should follow their school’s established NTI protocols. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.

All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Wednesday. If there are any changes to the YMCA CEP program, families will be notified by YMCA CEP.

Families,

Be on the lookout for grade-specific emails about our Doss High School Scheduling Blitz that will take place in classes next week with your students! Included in that email will be information about all our Academy pathways and the expectations for each academy.

🌟 CELEBRATING SCHOOL COUNSELORS | Feb. 2 to 6 is National School Counselor Week, a time to recognize and celebrate the vital role school counselors play in supporting students’ academic success, social-emotional development, and career readiness.

Thank you to our JCPS school counselors for all you do!

🚨REGULAR SCHEDULE | After careful consideration, JCPS will return to its normal, in-person schedule on Tuesday, February 3, 2026.

As always, we encourage everyone to use caution and their best judgment when traveling to and from school.

We appreciate your continued support of our students and staff throughout JCPS.

NTI DAY | Today, our teams spent the day evaluating road conditions and school campuses across the District. While many main roads remain in good shape, several side streets and neighborhood roadways are still icy.

These conditions have led us to utilize another Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) day on Friday, January 30. Students should follow their school-specific NTI instructions. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.

All athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

STAY UP TO DATE | JCPS families, if you did not receive alerts earlier this week related to the winter weather, please double-check that your contact information in Infinite Campus is current. You can update your details online or by calling your child’s school.

TECHNICAL ISSUE | We’re aware of a technical issue with the Parent Portal that is causing some 2026–27 school year enrollment information to display incorrectly. Our IT team is actively working to resolve the issue, and we anticipate it will be fixed by next week.

We’ll share an update once the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

❄ NTI DAYS | After evaluating road conditions throughout the community, Wednesday, Jan. 28 and Thursday, Jan. 29, 2026, will be Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) Days for JCPS students and staff.

While our crews report that most main roads are in good shape, many side streets and neighborhood roads across the county remain hazardous. Due to these lingering conditions and low temperatures, we believe transitioning to NTI is the safest choice for our students and staff.

Students should follow their school’s established NTI protocols. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.

All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Wednesday and Thursday. If there are any changes to the YMCA CEP program, families will be notified by YMCA CEP.

Thank you for your continued patience and flexibility as we navigate these winter conditions. Please stay warm and safe.

❄️ SNOW DAY FUN ❄️ | We love seeing how our JCPS students are spending their snow days! Share your photos with us on Facebook @JCPSKY!

Due to snow and hazardous road conditions, Monday, Jan. 26 and Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026 will be traditional snow days with no online learning. All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled. If there are any changes to YMCA CEP, families will be notified by CEP.
