Due to the threat of inclement weather, the special-called meeting of the Bladen
County Board of Education originally scheduled for Monday, March 16, has been
rescheduled for Tuesday, March 17, 2026, at 6:30 PM, in the boardroom at the District Administration Building.
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss and take action on seeking the closing
date of East Arcadia School. There will be no other items on the agenda.
Due to the threat of severe weather in our area and out of an abundance of caution, Bladen County Schools will transition to an asynchronous remote learning day for students and an optional workday for staff tomorrow, Monday, March 16.
Asynchronous learning means that students will work independently on assignments that teachers have either posted in Canvas or Google Classroom.
Staff will receive information about the optional workday from their supervisors later this evening.
All after-school events and activities are cancelled for Monday, March 16. Additionally, the special-called Board of Education meeting scheduled for Monday has been postponed until Tuesday, March 17, at 6:30 PM.
Thank you and please stay safe.

We are so proud of our Blue Devils for leading with kindness, building new friendships, and representing CSD so well. When we stand together, we make our schools stronger - piece by piece. 💙

Bladen County Schools will operate on a 2 hour delay tomorrow, Thursday, February 5. While, road conditions have significantly improved, the National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for our area due to the possibility of freezing rain overnight. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution all Bladen County Schools and departments will operate on a 2 hour delay tomorrow.
If overnight or early morning conditions require a change to the delay, a decision will be made by 7 am.
We appreciate your cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff. We encourage everyone to closely monitor all communication channels for additional updates and look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning.
