WEATHER ALERT — All Prince George’s County Public Schools (PGCPS) schools will be closed Friday, September 4, due to early morning storms that have left a large number of schools and offices without power.

Downed trees and power lines are also impacting recovery efforts.

12-month employees should report to work on time but are eligible for liberal leave. A list of impacted sites will be available on pgcps.org.

Please continue to monitor email, text alerts, the PGCPS website, and our social media channels for the latest information.
