UPDATE: At approximately 8:00pm this evening, county officials communicated a correspondence that came from the TN Department of Transportation regarding the need for additional inspections for several bridges in Lauderdale County. As this information has just come to light, we will close schools again on Monday, April 7, 2025, until all bridges have been properly inspected. Again, this information was just shared late this evening so we apologize for the earlier announcement. We will continue to communicate and keep you up to date with school closing information.
