WEATHER UPDATE - DISTRICT CLOSURE ⛈

Willis ISD will be closed on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, due to the forecast impact of Tropical Storm Edouard.

We are in communication with the National Weather Service and the Montgomery County Office of Emergency Management, and based on the latest information, the forecast calls for significant rainfall with the potential for flash flooding in areas that receive the heaviest downpours. We understand that closing school creates a disruption for households across our community, and this decision is not being made lightly. At the same time, we believe making this decision proactively is the best way to help keep our entire Wildkat Family safe, including giving our student-drivers, parents, and staff the opportunity to stay off the roads during potentially hazardous conditions, particularly during the early morning hours when it will still be dark.

Please continue to monitor the weather, use caution, and take care of one another. Stay safe and dry, Wildkat Family!
