Gilmer Schools announces delay

ELLIJAY, Ga. – With weather forecasts looking grim, the Gilmer County School system has announce they will operate on a two hour delay tomorrow, Monday, December 10.

We are monitoring weather forecasts and road conditions closely. At this time weather sources are posting conflicting forecasts for overnight and into tomorrow morning; however, all forecasts indicate precipitation with temperatures at freezing or slightly above. Because many of our roads are at higher elevations where temperatures are likely to fall below freezing overnight, Gilmer County Schools will operate on a two hour delay on Monday December 10, 2018 to allow buses, student drivers, and staff to travel in daylight conditions. The safety of Gilmer County students and staff is always our highest priority.
