Houston Independent School District schools and offices will be closed Tuesday, June 16 as a precautionary measure because of pending inclement weather and the related potential for dangerous road conditions.

HISD officials have been closely monitoring the weather forecast and have determined that storms and heavy rains predicted for parts of the Houston area may make for dangerous driving Tuesday afternoon. As a result, all HISD schools and district administrative offices will be closed Tuesday as a precautionary measure. All district events — including professional development and recruiting sessions — also will be canceled.

Schools and offices are expected to re-open at their regularly scheduled time on Wednesday, June 17. Should that change due to deteriorating weather conditions, we will notify you.
