Students in the Orange County Schools district will have no classes on Monday, Jan. 13 as a result of icy road conditions — while Chatham County Schools will operate on a two-hour delay.
As central North Carolina continues to thaw out after a winter storm dropped snow and sleet onto the region over the weekend, both school districts announced that persisting hazards for drivers led to their respective decisions. Orange County Schools specifically cited secondary roads being a problem for communities in the northern part of the county as a chief factor in its cancellation of classes.
CLOSED JAN 13 || OCS will be closed for students Monday, January 13, 2025. Optional workday for staff.
Stay tuned for updates on the district website and via phone, email, social media, and local TV/radio stations.
Thank you, and stay safe and warm! #orangecountyfirst pic.twitter.com/8C4KyCqDdp

Monday will be an optional staff workday, according to OCS’ alert to families, which also encouraged checking the district’s website throughout the day for further updates on Tuesday’s operations.
Both school districts, as well as Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, released students and staff early on Friday ahead of the winter storm’s arrival to the Triangle region. The storm dropped roughly 1 inch of snow, followed by a wintery mix, on Friday — and low temperatures on Saturday and Sunday caused many spots to freeze and for the ice to linger.
As of 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools had not issued any change in operations for its campuses on Monday.
