Good afternoon Raiders! Winnsboro ISD is closely monitoring the weather forecast for this week. We will notify parents, students, and staff if it becomes necessary to delay or close due to inclement weather. Notifications will be communicated on the district website, district app, social media sites and using our district-wide alert system. We will also make local media aware of any schedule changes. If no announcement is made, classes will proceed as normally scheduled.

On behalf of everyone at WISD we would like to express our condolences to the entire Morton family as we learned of the passing of former superintendent Susan Morton’s husband Kyle. Kyle served this community and surrounding communities throughout their years in Winnsboro as an employee of the United States Postal Service. Kyle also served the district in many ways during Mrs. Morton’s years at WISD. He was a lover of girls’ basketball, attended WISD events, served as an official for games, supported youth sports, and loved everything about WISD. Our thoughts and prayers are with Susan and her entire family as they navigate this difficult time.
