District-Wide Make-Up Day: Friday, April 3rd
Duncan Public Schools will be in school for a make-up day on Friday, April 3rd.
All inclement weather days were used during the January snow and ice storm, requiring one day to be made up to meet state attendance requirements.
We understand this adjustment may cause some inconvenience and appreciate the flexibility of our families and staff.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Snow Day January 30th, 2026
No Virtual Learning
This isn’t how we hoped to finish the week, but safety has to come first. With temperatures expected to fall below freezing overnight and icy spots likely to return on neighborhood and school roads, Duncan Public Schools will be closed on Friday, January 30th.
Road conditions should improve later in the day, but the morning hours are expected to be difficult for buses, student drivers, and staff. We know this closing may cause challenges for families, and we appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we make decisions with safety in mind.
We look forward to welcoming students and staff back on Monday, ready to start a new week together!
