Due to the winter weather advisory and current forecast, Warren County Schools will be closed for students on tomorrow, Monday, December 8, 2025. It will be a remote workday for Warren County Schools staff.
At Warren County Schools, we’re dedicated to supporting the whole child — academically, socially, and emotionally. That’s why we use CharacterStrong tools to help our students build strong relationships, healthy habits, and a positive sense of belonging.
As part of this commitment, we’ll be administering an anonymous student survey for grades 3–12 after winter break.
This survey helps us better understand how students feel about their school experience — their connection, engagement, and overall well-being.
Important Notes:
• The survey is completely anonymous.
• Participation is encouraged, but optional.
• Families may review the survey questions: 3rd-5th Grade | 6th-12th Grade
• If you prefer your student not to participate, an opt-out form is available here.
Your partnership helps us ensure every student feels seen, supported, and valued. If you have any questions, please reach out to your school counselor — we’re here for you and your child.

Warren County Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay on Friday, December 5, 2025, due to the threat of inclement weather. If anything changes, you will be notified by 6:15am. Please be safe.

To close, our staff and scholars joined together in the Friendship Dance, sharing smiles, encouragement, and inspirational words with one another. 🤝❤️
