PBSD School Closure Notice
For the safety of our students and staff due to icy road conditions, all Pine Bluff School District schools will be closed on Thursday and Friday, January 29–30, 2026.
Our maintenance, custodial, and grounds crews are currently working, as conditions allow, to clear parking lots, student entryways, and other critical areas. We have plans in place to ensure all campuses are ready to safely receive students when schools reopen.
We understand that missed instructional time is not ideal, and we are committed to providing additional instructional opportunities to continue supporting the academic growth of our students.
Thank you to our faculty and staff who continue to serve our students and families and help make PBSD a safe, student-centered community.

Dr. Jennifer Barbaree met with the Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council today. During the meeting, students and Dr. Barbaree engaged in meaningful conversations about the school district as a whole, as well as experiences specific to their individual schools. The purpose of the council is to provide students with a voice and allow the superintendent to hear not only their concerns, but also the successes they are experiencing throughout the district.
