Fulton Public Schools is prepared for the inevitable snow day. Officials consider many things when making decisions on inclement weather days; however, the final decision is always determined by what is best for the students. Student safety is the priority of our school district.

In the event school is canceled due to inclement weather, the district will send communications through our Mass Notification system alerting families. Families will receive a phone call, text, and an email to the contact information we have on file in your parent portal. PLEASE MAKE SURE THIS INFORMATION IS UP TO DATE!
Our website and mobile app will also be updated with cancellation notices as well as all of our District Social Media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X @FPSHornets).
The district will also notify TV stations KOMU - channel 8, KRCG - channel 13, and KMIZ - channel 17. THE SCHOOL DISTRICT ASKS PARENTS OR GUARDIANS NOT TO CALL SCHOOLS OR TELEVISION STATIONS ABOUT THE CANCELLATION OF SCHOOL.
EARLY DISMISSAL
Occasionally, school will be dismissed early due to bad weather. If an early dismissal is required an announcement will be made that school will be dismissed a specific number of hours early from the building’s normal dismissal time. School buses will run beginning at the dismissal time announced on those days if school is canceled midday.
Families will receive a text and an email letting them know the specific number of hours early school will be dismissing.
