After careful consideration of weather conditions concerning the eminent rain event in the Gulf of Mexico, Galveston ISD is announcing the decision to cancel classes for students Wednesday September 18, 2019.
The combination of pre-dawn rain and high tide indicate a probable safety issue for students and staff. Safe travel to and from Galveston ISD is a primary concern.
Changing weather events and additional communication will be shared via www.gisd.org ebsite, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and local cable Channel 17.
Please be safe and pay attention to weather warnings.
FYI - the city will post impassible roadways at www.galvestontx.gov
There will be no need to make up the student minutes for this event because our calendar provides for this type of closure.
There is no cancellation of indoor events for the remainder of today-Tuesday. After-school programs today will run as scheduled.
If your student is a bus rider, the GISD buses will continue to operate on their regular bus schedule.
Athletic event changes will be communicated by the Athletic Director's office.
The regularly scheduled GISD Board meeting will be held, as posted, in the GISD Support Center Wednesday 9-18-19 @ 6:30pm. Board training will begin at 5:45pm.
