Klondike families,

Due to today’s inclement weather and hazardous road conditions throughout the county, JCPS has made the decision to use a Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) day for students and staff.

On short-term NTI days, instruction is asynchronous and self-paced, meaning students will not receive live, online lessons from a teacher. Families received school-specific NTI plans last week. NTI Days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.

The link to your teachers assignments can be found below.

We know situations like what happened last night impact our students in different ways. Every JCPS school has a mental health team that is available to talk with students about how they are feeling. If your child would like support when we return to class, please reach out to their school.

As a reminder, we provide important updates via text, email, JCPS social media platforms, the JCPS app, our website, and local media.
