Inclement Weather

Sherman ISD may make the decision to cancel school or delay the start of classes as a result of inclement weather. The safety of students and staff holds top priority.

When weather situations arise, we consult multiple sources prior to making decisions on closing or delaying school activities, including communication with local first responders, transportation officials, area school districts and meteorology experts.

If a decision is made to close or delay school, the announcement will be communicated no later than 6 a.m. on the day of school. In the event school is already in session, a decision to end school early or cancel after-school programs/activities will be made as soon as appropriate. These announcements will be made through the communication channels listed below:

• Sherman ISD website (www.shermanisd.net)
• Sherman ISD mass notification system: direct calls, text messages and emails to families and staff. (Please ensure up-to-date contact information is on file with your child's school to ensure you receive notifications.)
• Sherman ISD social media: Facebook, Twitter/X and Instagram
• SISD Emergency Hotline: 903-891-8333

Additionally, athletics coaches will contact teams and families through the SportsYou app and social media regarding any changes to athletic schedules and events. 

Sherman ISD will always communicate with families and staff first regarding any type of inclement weather delays or closings. The following media outlets will also be notified and have information regarding current weather conditions in our area:
