Due to inclement weather conditions, all Charles County public schools and offices will be closed tomorrow, Monday, Jan. 26, 2026, on a Code Red. When a Code Red is called, only essential Charles County Public Schools (CCPS) staff report. All virtual professional development for tomorrow is canceled.
CCPS will re-evaluate early tomorrow morning any necessary move to a Code Blue status for Monday. When schools are closed, there are no after-school or evening activities.
Jan. 26 was already a school closure day for students for Semester Break. Because CCPS is closed tomorrow on a Code Red, the Semester Break will be moved to a later date. Additional details will be provided as calendars are finalized.
Visit the CCPS website, www.ccboe.com, for the most up-to-date school system information.
