Georgetown ISD will continue the Feb. 11 school day as planned, Superintendent Fred Brent said in an update.
"Temperatures are predicted to warm up above freezing this afternoon, and we believe that our students and staff are safest to remain on campus until road conditions improve for safe passage," he said.
School buses will continue to operate on schedule; however, if families wish to pick up their children, they are asked to notify campus officials, he said.
All after-school activities have been canceled, including YMCA after-school care for elementary school students, he said.
Brent said he will send out another update at 6 p.m.
