The Issue

Forsyth County faces a winter snowstorm on Monday, February 2nd, with heavy snowfall and icy roads making travel dangerous. Student, teacher, and staff safety should be our top priority. Neighboring counties have already announced closures, and the National Weather Service has issued storm warnings.

Closing schools aligns with safety-first practices, and virtual learning can ensure students don’t fall behind academically. We urge the Forsyth County School Board to close all schools on February 2nd to prevent accidents and protect the community. Please sign this petition to support the closure.
