Due to a number of our students, teachers, and staff coming from areas still affected by icy road conditions, CCSD will be closed for Students and Staff on Friday the 24th. We have listened to the input from our staff and parents and made this decision for the safety of everyone in the school district. We will return to our regular schedule on Monday.
Chambers County Schools will be back in session and operating our normal schedule on Friday, January 24, 2025. The County EMA and Road Department have been assessing the roads and will treat any remaining icy spots today. Buses will run at their regular time.
