School Cancellations
Are we having school tomorrow? This is a very common question when the weather is not so good. Information regarding school closings or schedule changes due to extreme weather will be posted on the cancellation page of the Blair Oaks District website as soon as a decision is made. Typically, a decision to close school is made just prior to 6:00am on the morning in question. On days that our district is closed, our broadcast telephone messaging system will call all district families on their primary contact number at approximately 6:00am to announce the closing. The Blair Oaks R-II School District will post school closings or schedule changes on the local radio and television stations.
