Update: Durham schools to shut down Thursday and Friday

Durham public schools will shut down Thursday and Friday in anticipation of Hurricane Florence, school officials announced Wednesday.

The decision was made “in the best interest of families and DPS staff and to allow for appropriate preparation for Hurricane Florence,” a press release said.

Previously, school officials had announced that schools would let out three hours early Thursday and remain closed through the weekend. All after-school activities and athletic events will remain canceled Thursday through Sunday.
