Parents, students and staff all used Wednesday to prepare for the big day.

The district said nothing is official until the board approves a plan.

JCPS also rolled out two tools to help parents on Monday: its transportation hotline and bus stop portal.

As parents are facing more changes and decisions, the district hosted a virtual information session Tuesday evening about two proposals that would implement three different start times instead of the nine JCPS currently has.

The district said transfer requests are done on the district's website.

Jefferson County Public Schools decided for Non-Traditional Instruction for Wednesday for the second straight day amid severe winter weather in Louisville.

On Monday, Jan. 15, there is no school because of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

The school district has already faced consistent driver shortages this school year, sometimes seeing delays of three to four hours getting kids to class. 

Monday was originally a day JCPS was out of school, but classes will be in session to make up some time when JCPS canceled classes at the start of the school year due to transportation issues.

The school district said many of the delays are due to bus driver call outs.
