Dear Henderson ISD Families, We are reaching out to inform you that Henderson High School and Middle School are currently under lockdown. This precautionary measure has been taken due to an unconfirmed report regarding a potential threat to our schools. We are actively working with the Henderson Police Department and other local law enforcement agencies to thoroughly investigate this situation. The safety and security of our students, staff, and community are our highest priorities. Rest assured, all necessary precautions are being taken to ensure the safety of everyone on campus. We ask that families refrain from coming to school to pick up their children at this time. Students will remain in their classrooms or designated safe areas until we receive clearance from authorities that it is safe to end the lockdown. We understand the anxiety and concerns that arise with such situations and are committed to keeping you informed. Further updates will be provided as soon as additional information becomes available. We appreciate your patience, understanding, and cooperation during this time. HISD Administration
HISD will return to normal schedules tomorrow! All campuses and busses will run at regular times. As we return to school, please be aware that some areas on campus may still be slick. Maintenance crews have been working all day to clear off any remaining ice but there may be areas, especially in shaded or covered areas, that could refreeze overnight. This could include steps, ramps, covered walkways, playgrounds, etc. Please be safe and stay warm and we will see you tomorrow!
HISD will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday, Jan 17. Although the roads in Henderson are looking much better today (thanks to the sun!), overnight temperatures will refreeze wet areas causing problems especially on rural roads in the county. Please stay safe and warm! - HISD Admin
All HISD campuses will be closed Tuesday due to weather conditions. Please stay safe and warm! - HISD Admin
