Dear SPS Families
Seattle Public Schools will be closed on Friday, November 12. We are aware of an unusually large number of SPS staff taking leave on Friday, and do not believe we have adequate personnel to open schools with the necessary environment for high-quality learning.
This is a change from the published schedule, and we recognize the late notice creates challenging circumstances for many families.
This learning day will be added to the end of the 21/22 school year to ensure all students have access to the full number of educational hours.
Sincerely,
Seattle Public Schools
