Felicity-Franklin Local Schools will be on a two-hour delay tomorrow, with no AM Preschool, Wednesday, January 28, 2026.
The delay allows for improved driver visibility after sunrise on narrow back roads and bus turn-arounds, and gives road crews time to address snow drifting and refreezing. Winds are expected to decrease; however, a Cold Weather Advisory remains in effect, with temperatures near or below zero.
Please be sure students are dressed appropriately for the extreme cold.
Thank you for your patience as safety remains our priority.
Bob Walker, Superintendent
All games/matches and practices are cancelled for tonight (1/27). Stay warm and safe!!

📅 **Important Paw-date:**

🧠 **Smart & Creative**

🧤 **Cold Weather Safety (Very Important!)**
* Stay inside as much as possible—it’s *dangerously cold*
* If you go outside briefly, wear layers, gloves, hats, and warm socks

* Always check with an adult before heading outdoors
❤️ **Be Kind & Helpful**
* Help shovel, clean, or organize (with an adult’s help)
