Local EMA officials are projecting 20-30 inches of rain and are cautioning against the dangers of vehicles on the road. Due to these projections, Candler County Schools will be closed for all staff and students on Tuesday August 6th. Updates regarding school for Wednesday August 7th will be decided and shared by 5 pm Tuesday. Stay Safe Tiger Nation!
This afternoon at 3:30 p.m., the Candler County School District will meet with Georgia Emergency Management (GEMA) and other local agencies. At 5:00 p.m., we will post an update on school operations on our social media pages, website (www.metter.org), and app. If you haven't already, please download our app from the Apple or Android stores and enable notifications. This app is essential for receiving timely updates during emergencies.
At this time, we are planning on having school tomorrow (Monday, Aug 5). However, we are monitoring the weather and this could possibly change. Please download the app “Candler County School District” on the Apple or Google Stores. Emergency Closing Notifications will come out through it and through text, phone and email as you provided in your Infinite Campus portal during registration.
