Weather Closures

Weather-Related School Closures

Depending on the situation and timing, and if power outages and internet services do not interfere, we try to make several notifications first thing in the morning, at around 6:30 a.m, such as:

• Posting on the School District website, District Facebook page, and FlashAlert.
• Recording a message on our District 24-hour Information Line: 541-265-4437.
• Sending a message through our REMIND app to parents/guardians’ primary phone number or email on file.
• Notifying local media.

NOTE: Lincoln County is a large geographic area. Isolated inclement weather situations affect some areas while others may be unaffected. However, the entire school district usually closes if it is unsafe for buses to run in any region of our county.

• If announcements are not on the LCSD website or the 24-hour Information Line, the First Student Bus Company will typically run their regular routes, and schools will typically operate on their regular schedules.
• Power outages and/or downed power lines may make internet access and phone messaging systems unavailable.
