De Queen Public Schools will return to school on Wednesday, Jan. 17th.
We know it will be extremely cold in the morning, and buses may run a little late. Our bus drivers will take their time at each stop so that children can be kept indoors to stay warm. Please be safe in the morning and we will see you all at school.
Due to icy road conditions, De Queen Public Schools will be closed on Tuesday, Jan. 16th.
This school day will be made up on Friday, Feb. 16th.
FYI....the Miss DHS pageant has been rescheduled for Feb. 10th.
