We typically do not make an announcement when we are having school, but because we have been out for quite a while, we wanted to make sure everyone knows that OPS will be in session beginning at normal time tomorrow, Monday, January 13, 2025!
Please see the return to school letter from superintendent Dr. Wendy Duvall below!
OPS Families,
Because of the entirety of the weather the past few days and the expected weather on Friday, our district will be working through a scenario that will allow us to get NTI packets and devices to students in order to provide instruction throughout the next couple of days and possibly into next week.
There is a lot of information about how this will work, so please read through everything below and if you have any questions, please reach out to us through Messenger on the Owensboro Public Schools Facebook page or by calling 270-686-1000..
Tomorrow and Friday, January 9-10, 2025, Owensboro Public Schools will utilize NTI Days #1 & #2 for our students.
For the students that already have their devices or packets, they will follow a normal NTI schedule as outlined in the district’s NTI Expectations. For those that do not have the materials they need, students and parents will be able to come pick up their devices or packets at their school tomorrow, January 9, 2025 from noon until 2 p.m.
Our Food Service staff are preparing breakfast and lunch for all students for both Thursday and Friday (four meals total) that can be picked up by the parents or students on January 9 from noon-2 p.m. when they pick up their NTI materials. Parents of students in multiple buildings can pick up meals at any one location, they do not have to go to each individual school to pick up their meals. Students do not have to be present to pick up the meals or the devices, but meals can only be distributed for students enrolled in the district.
If your family currently does not have access to the internet or electricity, please communicate that with your school and you will be given a packet to complete for the days that we are out due to weather.
I know this is a big undertaking for everyone involved and we appreciate your willingness to work together in order to ensure that we are providing educational services to our students throughout this winter weather episode.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us via the methods listed above.
Due to winter weather and local travel conditions, Owensboro Public Schools will be CLOSED Wednesday, January 8, 2025. This will be a traditional snow day for students and staff.

Frosty Fun Night @ Sutton 2024 ⛄️
Special thanks to our very own Mr. Corey Storm for being our guest reader, our staff who shared their time, several NHS Volunteers from OHS, our friends at Davies’s County Public Library for the craft, and our families that could have been anywhere, but chose to spend the evening with us making memories!
Don't forget Might Ma is tomorrow morning! Hope to see you all there!
With winter weather impacting our area over the next few months, it is a good time to remind our community about our process of communicating any changes to the school schedule. You can find all the information about how and when our district makes these notifications to our families in the link below.

"On Veterans Day we honor all, who answered to a service call. Soldiers young, and soldiers old, fought for freedom, brave and bold. Some have lived, while others died, and all of them deserve our pride. We're proud of all the soldiers who, kept thinking of red, white, and blue. They fought for us and all our rights. They fought through many days and nights. And though we may not know each name, we THANK ALL VETERANS just the same." Author Unknown
Happy Veterans Day❤️🤍💙
