Issaquah schools will be closed again Friday, Jan. 12. Transportation employees drove throughout the District this afternoon to assess the situation. Although some main streets were easily navigable, most roads from the Sammamish Plateau through the south-end of the District remained iced over. With plummeting temperatures tonight, any roads with remaining precipitation will again freeze and become dangerous. Forecasters predict temperatures will be in the teens tonight and will not climb above freezing until the weekend.

 

All school activities, including School Age Care, and facility rentals are also cancelled.

 

Please continue to check the District's homepage, www.issaquah.wednet.edu, for updates.

 

This will be the sixth day schools have been closed due to snow and wind this school year. We know many students, parents, and staff members are anxious about the make-up days, but student safety has to be our first priority every time we gauge weather conditions after a storm.

 

Thank you.
