Due to current hazardous road conditions and the potential for them to worsen throughout the day as temperatures rise, all Oxford Community Schools are closed today, February 3, 2025.
All elementary and middle school extracurricular activities scheduled for today have been canceled. We will continue monitoring road conditions throughout the day. High school coaches and advisors will communicate directly with their teams regarding optional practices and games this evening.
We are anticipating that all Oxford Community Schools will be in session tomorrow, but due to slippery road conditions, our buses will not be able to travel on dirt roads for pickups or drop-offs. If your child’s bus stop is on a dirt road, please make arrangements to transport them tomorrow to and from school if it is safe to do so. We are letting you know this evening to allow time for planning, and we appreciate your understanding.
If you have questions in the morning, please contact the transportation department at (248) 969-1888.
