With the forecasted winter weather next week, please review the following information so you know what to expect in the event that Hannibal Public Schools closes due to inclement weather.

Officials consider many things when making decisions on inclement weather days; however, the final decision is always determined by what is best for the students. Everyone's safety and well-being is top priority of our school district.


The district strives to make an early decision so families can make a plan. School families will likely hear from the district by 6:30 a.m. on School Cancellation / Hard Surface Road Only Days. Due to the volatility of the weather, this may not always be possible, but we try our best.


Thank you for supporting the Hannibal Public School District and your flexibility as we make our way through another Missouri Winter.
