Good evening Lassiter Families,
Due to forecasted frigid temperatures in the early morning hours on Monday, December 15, 2025, JCPS has made the decision to use a Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) day for students and staff.
This decision was made with the safety and well-being of our students in mind, as they would be waiting at bus stops and walking to school in extremely cold conditions. The National Weather Service tells us temperatures could drop as low as 1 below with windchill.
Please see the following ink for Lassiter's Short-Term NTI Plan: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j4L1qqWQ3DNb2TRAoli9N3I-ZI0ru7n23gtZaLlyXxs/edit?usp=sharing
