Wellfleet Elementary

All NPS schools will be closed again on Friday, February 27.

Power restoration efforts have been highly successful, and nearly all of our schools now have electricity restored. However, widespread residential outages continue across the region. In addition, there are ongoing safety concerns at bus stops and along several roadways due to remaining debris and snow accumulation. These conditions present potential concerns for student safety.

All schools will reopen on Monday, March 2.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding as we have worked through this unprecedented situation. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to school next week.

Dear Members of the Nauset School Community,

All Nauset Public Schools and offices will be closed once again tomorrow, Thursday, February 26.

Power outages across our four towns remain widespread and continue to impact the majority of our school buildings. While our facilities are equipped with emergency generators, they are not designed to support full building operations for regular school occupancy.

Multiple power restoration crews are actively working throughout the region. We are closely monitoring restoration efforts and will assess whether opening schools on Friday is feasible. If power is restored and our towns are fully operational, the current plan is to hold school on Friday.

Further updates will be shared as soon as additional information becomes available.

Dear Members of the Nauset Community,

Please note that Nauset Public Schools will open two hours later tomorrow, Tuesday, January 27.

Tremendous progress was made today in cleaning up from the storm across all of our campuses. However, with additional snow forecasted overnight and very cold temperatures expected, there is concern that untreated areas could freeze and impact road safety.

The two-hour delay will allow town road crews and school custodial staff additional time to treat roads, walkways, and parking areas to help ensure safer conditions for students and staff.

On a related note, please continue to pay close attention to the upcoming forecast. We are expecting extremely cold temperatures in the coming days, so please dress appropriately.

Thank you for your support and understanding.

Sincerely,
Glenn Brand
Superintendent of Schools
