"The Tuscaloosa City Schools will be closed on Friday, Jan. 10, due to the threat of predicted winter weather. This cancellation only includes schools and activities on Friday—after-school activities will continue as scheduled today, Thursday, Jan. 9. To make up for this closure, students will attend school on Tuesday, Feb. 18. We encourage TCS families and staff to stay safe and weather-aware."

Tuscaloosa County Schools to Close

"Due to the possibility of winter weather for our area, all Tuscaloosa County School System schools and offices will be closed Friday, January 10, 2025. All extracurricular activities are canceled for January 10. The most up-to-date forecast for our area includes the possibility of a wintry precipitation mix Friday morning, which could impact road conditions. We are a large county, and it is likely that different parts of our county will experience different weather on Friday. Safety is our top priority, and we must make the safest decision for all of our schools and bus routes.

Please stay safe and weather aware. We expect to resume normal operations Monday, January 13. We do not anticipate any changes to weekend extracurricular activities."
