Due to the extremely low and dangerous temperatures forecasted for Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan. 21 and 22, McMinn County Schools will be closed. As always, the safety of our students and staff is our number one priority. Low temperatures combined with the wind chill pose significant challenges for students waiting outside on busses, as well as the operation of busses and our buildings.
We encourage all of our families and staff to take any and all measures to stay warm during this time of extreme weather.
We've made a combined list of All.the.things!

Out of an abundance of caution, McMinn County Schools will remain closed on Friday, January 17. We appreciate the work the McMinn County Highway Department has done to clear the secondary roads. However, a number of roads still remain unsafe for busses and student drivers to travel on.
The Calhoun Spelling Bee originally scheduled for tomorrow will be moved to January 24.
County basketball tournament games at McMinn Co High School WILL take place.
Despite great efforts throughout the day today, a large number of secondary roads still remain impassable for our busses. McMinn County Schools will remain closed on Thursday, January 16. We understand the inconvenience this may cause, but the safety of our students and staff is always our top priority.
