Due to inclement weather conditions, Worcester County Public Schools will be closed on Tuesday, February 24, 2026. Please note that tomorrow is the final inclement weather day built into the school system calendar. Should inclement weather conditions persist into Wednesday, families should prepare for virtual learning as they are able. We understand that power and connectivity outages may not be resolved by that time. However, as a reminder, all students will be provided support to make-up any instruction and classwork upon our return to in-school learning should they not be able to access synchronous instruction.
