After consultation with the National Weather Service, all Natchitoches Parish schools and facilities will release at their normal times today. However, all after school extra-curricular activities will be cancelled. The current trends in the weather forecast according to the National Weather Service, show the main threat of inclement weather in Natchitoches Parish between 5pm and 10pm. Due to schools being out before 5pm, Natchitoches Parish School Board officials decided not to conduct an early dismissal. Most NPSB school buses will run at their normal times. For several longer bus routes, EccoRide will run those buses earlier than normal. EccoRide will contact those parents with the dismissal time. NPSB will continue to monitor the weather and will update the community on social media if anything changes. #NPSB #TogetherWeCan #PPoP #NPSBWeatherUpdate
