We regret to inform you that Sivells Bend ISD will remain CLOSED on Thursday, January 29, 2026, due to ongoing hazardous road conditions.
Farm-to-Market Road 1201 remains heavily impacted by packed snow, sleet, and sheets of ice. These rural and county roads experience limited traffic, making it difficult to break up the accumulation, and temperatures have not been sufficient to melt the roadway surfaces.
We apologize for the continued disruption caused by this winter storm and appreciate your patience and understanding as we prioritize the safety of our students, families, and staff.
Please stay warm and safe.
Unfortunately, rising temperatures provided very little thawing of road surfaces—particularly Farm-to-Market Roads 1201 and 1202, which are the primary routes to and from Sivells Bend School. Any limited thawing that occurs this afternoon is expected to refreeze after sunset, creating even more hazardous and icy conditions.
We appreciate your continued patience and support as we prioritize the safety of our students, staff, and families. Please continue to monitor the Sivells Bend ISD Facebook page and district website for any additional updates or changes.
Stay safe and warm.
Sivells Bend ISD will be CLOSED on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, as hazardous weather-related road conditions continue across our area.
Current forecasts indicate temperatures are not expected to rise above freezing until Tuesday afternoon, meaning travel routes are likely to remain unsafe throughout the morning and early afternoon hours.
We appreciate your continued patience and support as we prioritize the safety of our students, staff, and families. Please continue to monitor the Sivells Bend ISD Facebook page and district website for any additional updates or changes.
Stay safe and warm.
Out of an abundance of caution for our Sivells Bend Warrior families, students, and staff, Sivells Bend ISD will be closed on Monday, January 26, 2026.
Road conditions and temperatures will determine whether school can resume on Tuesday, January 27. We will reassess conditions Monday afternoon and initiate our notification process at that time.
Please continue to monitor local and Metroplex news outlets, as well as the district’s Facebook page, for updates. Above all, please stay safe and warm.
All weather-related decisions will be communicated in a timely manner through local and DFW-area media outlets, Sivells Bend ISD social media, and district notifications sent through our website/app-Rooms.
If inclement weather results in a change to the regular school day (early release, late start, or school closure), an official announcement will be released to the following radio and television stations: KGAF 92.3 FM, KGAF 1580 AM, WFAA Channel 8, FOX 4, and KXII 12 News. School updates and announcements are also posted on the district’s Facebook page.
This is a good time for families to review and update their contact information in ASCENDER Parent Portal to ensure they receive all important notifications.
