Jay Schools are closed Friday, February 4, 2022. An eLearning day is being implemented.
UPDATE:
Today’s eLearning was a precaution given the NWS warning for uncertain weather impacts on our afternoon dismissal and late afternoon bus and student-driver travel. Early dismissal is only used as a last resort. It is better to not send the kids to school than send them home early when it is a mess and too late to do anything about it.
With the ongoing winter storm warning and deteriorating conditions over the next 24 hrs, Jay Schools will be on an eLearning day, Thursday, February 3, 2022. Our early announcement is intended to give everyone time to prepare.
It is for such uncertain weather situations that eLearning was put in place several years ago. We appreciate your support as these decisions are made.
The current National Weather Service Warning is at this link:

The National Weather Service has advised that Jay County is under a Winter Storm Warning from 1:00 PM Wednesday to 1:00 AM Friday with a possible 12 - 16 inches of snow. Jay Schools will be on an eLearning day, Wednesday, February 2, 2022.
