As a result of the closure of our campuses and offices on Tuesday, Jan. 21, due to the inclement weather conditions, we will need to make up the instruction missed on that day through our designated Weather Make-up Day on Monday, Feb. 10. This make-up day will include all students and staff district wide.

Taking into account the most recent weather updates from the National Weather Service, we have decided to close all STISD campuses and offices tomorrow, Tuesday, Jan. 21, and to have a delayed start on Wednesday, Jan. 22. We will resume our regular schedule on Thursday as of now.

Out of an abundance of caution, STISD will have a delayed start district wide on Tuesday, Jan. 21. This delayed start includes all 7 STISD campuses.
Staff will need to report to campuses and offices by 9:00 a.m., and we will delay the start of classes until 10:00 a.m. We will adjust our campus schedules to accommodate the shorter day and end the day at the usual time of 4:05 p.m.
