Isle of Wight County Schools will close to students and staff on Wednesday, Jan. 22, due to expected snow.

“After closely monitoring the National Weather Service and local forecasts as well as consulting with the emergency services, it appears that snow will impact our area overnight,” IWCS said in a statement just after 8 a.m. on Tuesday. “Given these predictions and the likelihood of hazardous road conditions, all IWCS schools and offices will be closed on Wednesday, January 22, for all students and staff. This includes all after-school and evening activities. SOL testing for middle school students scheduled for tomorrow will occur on Thursday. We appreciate your understanding as we all work together to ensure the safety of our students and staff.”
