Dear Lomax & Valdosta City School Families, At approximately 3:30 am this morning, the district was notified that flash flooding has made many of our roads in the city impassable. With the rain continuing to fall, local authorities have deemed that travel on these roads is too dangerous for school buses and other vehicles. Due to our inability to safely transport students to school and the timing of this event, Valdosta City Schools will be closed Thursday, November 7, 2024. We apologize for this late notice as this is an unexpected emergency that is still developing. We will provide more details once we learn more. Your understanding is greatly appreciated.

We would like to thank Miss Black and Gold, Miss Black, Miss Gold and Miss Yellow Rose for spending time with our scholars today. These young ladies participated in the Miss Black and Gold pageant this past spring that was sponsored by the Mu Omicron Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha, Fraternity Incorporated at Valdosta State University and secured the crown. Our scholars really enjoyed them and can't wait for them to come back again soon. Nos gustaría agradecer a Miss Black and Gold, Miss Black, Miss Gold y Miss Yellow Rose por pasar tiempo con nuestros estudiantes hoy. Estas jóvenes participaron en el certamen Miss Black and Gold la primavera pasada que fue patrocinado por el Capítulo Mu Omicron de Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated en Valdosta State University y aseguraron la corona. Nuestros estudiantes realmente los disfrutaron y no pueden esperar a que regresen pronto. #noplacelikethemax #jllcommunityengagement #pageantqueensatthemax
