📣Faine Family!

Dothan City Schools will be closed for all students and staff on Monday, October 12, 2026, due to severe weather impacts that have left several roads impassable throughout the area. The decision was made with the safety of students, staff and families as the district’s top priority. Current road conditions present transportation and safety concerns that prevent the district from safely resuming normal school operations.

District officials will continue working with the City of Dothan and monitoring conditions and will announce a decision regarding school operations for Tuesday, October 13, by 6:00 p.m. on Monday, October 12. Families and staff are encouraged to monitor the district’s official communication channels, including the DCS website, mass notification system, and social media pages for updates.

Dothan City Schools appreciates the patience and understanding of our families, staff, and community as we navigate the impacts of severe weather.
