Good morning Lassiter Families,
Bus 1434 Families, please be aware that bus 1434 has made about half of its route but is currently stuck. We do not know the length of the delay for the remainder of the run. The garage is on their way to help get the bus unstuck. We will update you as we learn more.
Good afternoon Lassiter Families,
JCPS will operate on a two-hour delay tomorrow, 2/2/26.
Bus stop times are two hours later than their normal time. Please be patient as bus drivers will be extra cautious to ensure the safety of all students.
If your student is a walker, then please make sure your student's route to school is safe.
Car riders, please allow extra time for your morning arrival. Candleworth and many neighborhood roads are far from perfect, so please be extra cautious in the car rider line.
Doors will open at 9:00 AM for students.
We will dismiss at normal time, and all after school athletic and extracurricular activities remain as planned.
We are excited to welcome Lassiter students back to school tomorrow!
DELAYED START| All JCPS schools will operate on a two-hour delay on Monday, February 2, 2026. Early Childhood classes are canceled for the day. All after school athletic events and extracurricular activities remain as scheduled. There is no change to dismissal times.
A delayed start will allow students to be at bus stops and walking to school in the daylight.

These conditions have led us to utilize another Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) day on Friday, January 30. Students should follow their school-specific NTI instructions. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.
All athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Note: Updates may take up to 24 hours to show up in the app.

We’ll share an update once the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

While our crews report that most main roads are in good shape, many side streets and neighborhood roads across the county remain hazardous. Due to these lingering conditions and low temperatures, we believe transitioning to NTI is the safest choice for our students and staff.
Students should follow their school’s established NTI protocols. NTI days are recognized as standard instructional days and will not extend the school calendar.
All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Wednesday and Thursday. If there are any changes to the YMCA CEP program, families will be notified by YMCA CEP.
Thank you for your continued patience and flexibility as we navigate these winter conditions. Please stay warm and safe.

Good morning Lassiter Families,
After evaluating road conditions throughout the community, Wednesday, Jan. 28 and Thursday, Jan. 29, 2026, will be Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) Days for JCPS students and staff.
Lassiter's Short-Term NTI Plan
All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Wednesday and Thursday.
Thank you for your continued patience and flexibility as we navigate these winter conditions. Please stay warm and safe.
