One year, we had a snowstorm that lasted for several days, and school was closed for almost a week. While it was nice to have a break from teaching, I knew that my students were falling behind on their coursework.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, I&#8217;ve also had experiences where school wasn&#8217;t closed even though the weather was terrible. One year, we had a severe thunderstorm that knocked out power in the school, but we still had to continue teaching in the dark. It was a challenging day, to say the least!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Expert_Quotes\"><\/span>Expert Quotes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We spoke with Dr. Joris Ray, the superintendent of Shelby County Schools, about the decision-making process for school closures.

We consult with a team of experts to monitor weather conditions, and we make the decision to close schools based on their recommendations.

However, I&#8217;m glad that the school district prioritizes safety over convenience.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_How_does_Shelby_County_Schools_make_the_decision_to_close_schools_due_to_weather\"><\/span>Q: How does Shelby County Schools make the decision to close schools due to weather?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: The superintendent, Dr. Joris Ray, consults with a team of experts to monitor weather conditions and makes the decision to close schools based on their recommendations.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q_How_will_I_know_if_Shelby_County_Schools_is_closed_due_to_weather\"><\/span>Q: How will I know if Shelby County Schools is closed due to weather?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A: The school district will send out notifications via text message, email, and social media.
