Allen ISD will hold class as regularly scheduled on Friday, February 25. This decision was made following a discussion between district officials and local emergency personnel and an examination of road conditions.
As always, please be safe when driving, and we encourage everyone to allow extra time for travel. The Allen ISD Facilities Department has been working today to salt and de-ice campus entrances and sidewalks, however, some areas may remain slick. Please be cautious when walking on any concrete surfaces.
Bus transportation will run on Friday morning, but travel times may be slower than usual. Our drivers will complete their routes in a timely manner, but traveling safely will be their top priority. If your child rides the bus, we encourage you to send your child to the bus stop wearing plenty of warm clothing. We appreciate your patience as our hard-working drivers transport your children to and from school.
Thank you for your cooperation as we work together to navigate this winter weather.
