Van Buren County Schools Closed Thursday And Friday

The cold weather has forced a number of schools to issue two hour delays for the next two days, but the Van Buren County School System has decided to close Thursday and Friday.

“We are having some heat issues at one of our elementary schools and the temperatures are going to be so low over the next two days, we just don’t want the kids out there waiting on the bus,” Van Buren County Director of Schools Cheryl Cole said.

Cole said crews should have the heating issue fixed by tomorrow morning.

Van Buren County Schools were slated to come back from holiday break tomorrow.
