Main road conditions across the city are in good shape and our maintenance team has worked extensively over the past several days to clear primary entrances and key areas on all campuses.
This delay allows our administrators and maintenance team time to reassess any overnight changes and make final preparations, while also giving students who walk to school and our bus drivers full daylight for safer travel.
Bell schedules & bus stop times shift 2 hours later and ESP will be open at all schools from 7 a.m.–6 p.m.
We understand personal circumstances may vary, Board Policy 6.200 allows parents to provide written documentation for up to 10 excused absences per school year, and extreme weather conditions are included in this list.

Members of the RCS leadership team have visited all 52 school campuses to assess the condition of parking lots and sidewalks, and there are several areas that remain ice-covered, especially around entrances that students use. RCS does stock snow-melt salt, but we don’t have enough to cover the amount of issues that remain.The central office will be open Thursday and Friday, and there will be crews working to ensure facilities are ready to reopen for Monday.
Sumner County Schools – closed through January 30
Sumner County Schools will be closed through Friday, January 30, 2026.
Williamson County Schools – closed through January 30
Many secondary and subdivision roads remain covered in ice and tree limbs making travel hazardous – and in some cases – impossible for school buses. In addition, we are still clearing ice and downed trees from our school campuses and working to ensure heating units are running properly. For those reasons, there will be no school in Williamson County Schools on Friday, January 30, 2026. The School Age Child Care program will be open at all inclement weather sites – except for Fairview – on both Thursday, January 29 and Friday, January 30. The program has communicated specifics directly with families. Twelve-month employees should follow the snow day protocol. Those who can work remotely, may do so, with the approval of their supervisor. This will be our fifth snow day of the school year. We have ten built into the calendar.
Wilson County Schools – closed Friday, January 30th, 2026.
Kids Club will operate on their Snow/Inclement Weather Plan and 12-month employees should report, but only if travel would be considered safe throughout your commute. After a thorough morning evaluation of roadways throughout the county, several hazardous areas remain as they relate to normal school day travel for many of our buses and families. We’ve located some rural areas in the eastern and southeastern parts of the county that would not be satisfactory, but also many neighborhoods in the northern and northwest side of the county that would be considered very hazardous for school day travel.While we do expect some more melting to occur today, based on our observations, it just wouldn’t meet our standards on keeping safety the top priority for everyone as we look ahead to tomorrow. More updates will come this weekend.
