Hello DCPS families and staff—this is a quick update from Winter Weather Headquarters ❄️
After Monday and Tuesday’s snow days, we’ve officially used all the snow days in our calendar. That means Wednesday, January 28, 2026, will be a virtual learning day for students.
Students should either log in for virtual learning, or—if your family requested a paper packet—work on the packet that was sent home last Friday.
Schools shared virtual learning details last week, so families should already have schedules and login information. If you need a refresher, please check your school’s messages.
Just a reminder that Thursday and Friday are professional development and semester transition days, so students will not be in session. Staff will participate in virtual professional development and should check their email for details.
Thanks for your flexibility—stay warm, and we’ll see our students online tomorrow!
Due to the poor weather conditions, Dorchester County Public Schools will be closed tomorrow, Tuesday, January 27, 2026. All schools and offices will be closed. Please be safe!
Good Afternoon!
Due to the poor weather conditions, Dorchester County Public Schools will be closed tomorrow, Monday, January 26, 2026. All schools and offices will be closed. Please be safe!
PreK and Kindergarten students will receive paper packets and will not have devices sent home.
Having devices ready helps us maintain learning momentum in the event of inclement weather and a shift to virtual instruction. We appreciate your partnership in making sure devices travel safely and return in good condition—preferably without stickers, snack crumbs, or signs of a sibling showdown. 😉

⚠️Winter Weather Update from DCPS⚠️
A winter storm may impact our area this weekend (Jan 24-25, 2026). DCPS plans to open on a regular schedule on Monday, January 26, but we will monitor conditions closely and keep you informed of any changes.
❄️School Schedule - DCPS is scheduled to open for a normal school day on Monday, January 26.
❄️Weather Monitoring - If the storm moves in this weekend, we may need to close schools. Weather-related updates will be provided through the DCPS app, social media platforms, email, phone system, and website.
❄️Snow Days - DCPS has 2 more snow days built into our 2025-2026 school calendar. Maryland law requires us to use all built-in snow days before considering virtual instruction.
❄️Virtual Instruction - If the storm results in school closures beyond 2 days, we will switch to virtual instruction. Grades 1-12 will log into their devices to connect with teachers online. PK and K students will receive paper copies and can contact teachers for help.
❄️Preparation - Students with device agreements will bring devices home Friday; all other students and students in PK and K will receive paper assignments.
📅Possible Closure Plan:
❌Monday 1/26: If closed, no school
❌Tuesday 1/27: If closed, no school
💻Wednesday 1/28: If closed, virtual instruction begins
❌Thursday 1/29: Schools Closed for Staff Professional Development
❌Friday 1/30: Schools Closed for Change of Semester
We’re committed to being prepared and will keep you informed.
#BelieveInUs
Brace yourselves, and don't shoot the messenger, as we don't make these decisions, we just follow the directions! Below is a link for device agreements for 1st-5th grade! PreK & Kindergarten will receive packets and will not have devices sent home.
This is to ensure we keep with our momentum for learning should we have inclement weather and need to go virtual! We ask for your partnership in ensuring these devices survive their journey and return in one piece (preferably without stickers, snack crumbs, or evidence of a sibling battle).
https://form.jotform.com/260148048408153
We appreciate your support in making virtual learning (if needed) a smooth experience. With a little teamwork, we can ensure that both students and devices survive this adventure!
