The Candler County School District plans to operate on a normal schedule for Tuesday, January 9. With the timing of the storm, we feel students may be safer inside the school buildings and the storm should be passed by the time school ends as they predict it is moving very quickly. However, we will continue to monitor the weather and will keep you updated through social media, our websites, and through our mass communication text/call/email system. We hope that everyone will be safe as this storm passes through our area.
