In observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Blue Ridge ISD will be closed on Monday, January 20, 2025. Classes resume on Tuesday, January 21st.
For the safety of our students, staff, and families, Blue Ridge ISD will be closed on Friday, January 10th. All high school basketball games for Friday have been canceled. We look forward to seeing everyone back on campus on Monday. Stay safe and warm!
Due to inclement weather conditions and the forecast of a wintry mix, precipitation, freezing temperatures, and the potential for hazardous road conditions, Blue Ridge ISD will be closed tomorrow, January 9th. This decision was made out of an abundance of caution and with the safety of our students and staff in mind. We will continue to monitor the weather for Friday and provide updates through our website, social media, news outlets, and email.

❄️Winter Weather Reminder❄️
As we prepare for colder weather, we want to remind you of Blue Ridge ISD's Winter Weather Protocols.
Our top priority is the safety of our students and staff. District officials will closely monitor weather conditions, consider road safety, wind temperatures, and other factors. Decisions about delays or closures are made with care and communicated through:
✅Blue Ridge ISD Website
✅Facebook and Twitter
✅District-wide calls and emails
✅BRISD App
✅Notifications on major broadcast channels
We aim to make decisions by 5:30 AM to accommodate school transportation routes and family schedules. Our considerations include the safety of our buses, young student drivers, student walkers, and parents navigating the roads.
If there are no updates or communications, please assume school is operating on a normal schedule with regular bus routes and start times.
BRISD thanks you in advance for your patience in the event of a winter situation. ❄️
