Hamilton County Schools will be closed Tuesday because of dangerous conditions caused by weather, as well as COVID-19, the district announced Monday. Several other schools in the region have also announced Tuesday closures and delays.

“Hamilton County Schools values the safety and well-being of our students and staff,” the system said in a 3:15 p.m. email to parents.

The school system said some higher elevation roads and school parking lots “pose a safety issue, and the added day will provide relief to schools experiencing high cases of COVID among students and staff.”

The email urged families to be mindful of potential COVID-19 symptoms during the time off and to get tested and be symptom-free for 48 hours before returning to school.
