KILLEEN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT
May 2, 2025, 1:50 p.m. - Dear Killeen ISD Families and Staff,
Due to the forecast of severe weather expected in our area later today, all Killeen ISD campuses will release one hour early this afternoon, Friday, May 2, 2025. Buses will run but may be delayed.
This decision is being made out of an abundance of caution to ensure that students and staff are home safely before conditions potentially worsen. Bus routes will run one hour earlier than normal, and after-school activities are canceled districtwide.
We encourage all families to make appropriate arrangements for pickup and supervision. Student safety remains our top priority, and we appreciate your understanding as we respond proactively to weather developments.
Please continue to monitor local news outlets and the KISD website or social media channels for any further updates.
(This message has been sent via mass notification system to all parents/guardians.)
