Dear Yantis ISD Parents and Guardians,
Due to our area's forecast of sleet and snow, Yantis ISD will cancel school on Thursday, January 9th, and Friday, January 10th. The safety of our students and staff is always our top priority, and we believe this decision is in the best interest of everyone.
All extracurricular activities scheduled for these dates will also be canceled.
We appreciate your understanding and support as we work to ensure the safety of our school community. Please stay safe, and we look forward to seeing everyone back at school on Monday, January 13th
Sincerely,
Robyn Derington
Superintendent

Winter weather is on the horizon, and we want to make sure we are all prepared!
If there are any delays or closures, you can find updates through:

Make sure your contact info is updated with the campus offices to receive timely closure and delay notifications via email and text.
If you don’t see any notifications, that means classes will proceed as usual. Thank you for your patience! Winter weather can be unpredictable, but we’ll do our best to keep you informed and help you plan ahead. Stay warm!
