The forecast for Tyler and the surrounding areas shows harsh winter weather this weekend into early next week. We are closely monitoring the weather situation, making necessary preparations for our schools and facilities, and, as always, are in contact with our local weather experts.
Although we are still a few days out, we want to ensure that we are all prepared for any potential disruptions this weather system may cause, especially considering Monday, January 15, is a student and staff holiday.
Please stay tuned for any school-related updates, including potential weather-related closures beyond Monday, January 15, 2024. All weather updates will be made via TylerISD.org, our Tyler ISD Facebook page, email, and text.
Our students and staff’s safety and well-being are our top priorities. We hope that everyone stays safe and warm as this storm passes through East Texas.

It's National School Bus Safety Week, and here are the four things we need you to know! 🚌👇
1) Flashing Yellows = Get ready to STOP (Don't speed up)
2) Red Lights + Stop Sign = STOP! (Don't go around)
3) The Danger Zone = All vehicles stay 12 feet away from the bus
4) The MOST DANGEROUS action is when students cross the front of the bus. Pay attention to children crossing. 🚸
School Bus Safety ensures that children return home safely, and we all have a role in that. 🖤
Parents, families, and educators, we must educate kids on the risks of fake prescription pills. Many may not be aware these pills are laced with fentanyl, a powerful opioid that can be deadly in small amounts.
